Hi,

I have 2x drives that are formatted in ntfs and mounted as unassigned disks, i need help setting up a script to transfer the data on the disks to the array so that i can clear the disks and add them to the array.

There are multiple ways.

 

Krusader is a Docker that makes copying files, and I might suggest using that.

 

There is a YouTube video by SpaceInvader One on how to get this Docker setup.

Thanks SSD

I figured out how to login via terminal (ssh) and used the cp command is that also an option? Because i am doing it right now, just hope i don't mess up anything

cp will work fine. But you could run into problems if the SSH windows times out. The session will end and the copy will stop. It is best to run "cp" in a "screen" session which doesn't have this problem. If your SSH won't time out, what you have done should be fine.

I am using a mac to login via ssh, how will i know if the ssh session might time out? Or what would suggest?

Its not so much a time out, but if you close the window, or the mac goes to sleep, etc.
