December 17, 201411 yr I have a plus registration key, a parity drive, 5 array drives, and a cache drive. One of the drives is starting to fail. I wanted to preclear the disk BEFORE I took the other one out of the array, but when I do an preclear_disk.sh -l it shows no available devices. Is something up with my drive? Or am I not seeing it because I've maxed out the number of drives I can use? I would think it would still let me preclear one, just not add it to the array.
December 17, 201411 yr Plus should not prevent you from seeing the drives. Do they show up as Non-Array drives? Do they show up in the syslog?
December 17, 201411 yr Author After looking in the syslog, I did not see the drive as recognized. It was the darndest thing....the drive is plugged into a SATA 3 in 2 drive cage, and the connection was enough for the power lights to come on, but not for the drive to be seen. Adjusted the brackets of the backplane, and off to the races. Thanks for quick response, I ordered the Pro Key anyway
