November 9, 201411 yr I'm having a bit of a problem adding an old parity as a data drive. I removed my 2tb WD and replaced it with a 6th WD Red for parity. I had pre-cleared it and when I added it to the array I did a parity check. All went well Now I'm having a problem with adding my old 2tb WD as a data drive. When I stop the array to add the drive the 2tb drive is greyed out and I cannot add it to a new slot (Disk 6). But I can deselect a drive I already have (Disk 5 for example) and I then have the option to put the old parity drive in its place. Can someone tell me where I'm messing up pls?

November 9, 201411 yr Author Crap, that would be the problem alright. Bit of a kick in the teeth as my current build can only hold one more drive so its alot of money to drop on a Pro key to just add one drive. Single unRAID® Server Plus Registration key … $69 Single unRAID® Server Pro Registration key … $119 I would just end up with an unused Plus key aswell. Decisions decisions Thanks for that itimpi Edit: saw the Plus can Upgraded for $59
