I've added a new drive to the system, completed preclear on it, but it still shows its in "standby" and wont let me add it to the array. Clicking spin up does nothing.

 

I've tried rebooting, and here is the disk log:

Your screenshot shows the array is started.    You need to stop it before you can add a drive.

Assuming you're on v6.2:

 

FAQ - I have a new SAS drive.  How do I get unRAID to assign it?

Yes, I took the screenshot while array was started to show that it wouldnt spin up.
