itimpi Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 If you are being told that the USB drive is blacklisted then it does not have a unique GUID and is thus not suitable for use as an Unraid boot drive. It is a requirement for UnRAID that any USB drive have a unique GUID, but some vendors do not give their drives unique GUIDs. This probably means you need a new one. One I have seen many use successfully is the Sandisk Cruzer Fit 16GB USB 2 drive. Note that USB2 is preferred over USB3 as it is more reliable and since Unraid runs from RAM there is no performance benefit to using USB3. Quote Link to comment
