Great, thanks!  Will my server be accessible for applications such as Plex etc while the new 8TB drive is being formatted and brought online?

Yes.    The formatting phase only takes a couple of minutes.   Obviously until the format completes the 8TB drive will not be used for storing any data.

But it looks like the pre-clear process is going to take 11 hours which seems really long.  

 

As long as I don't mess everything up I will run mover and start up all the Dockers.

 

THANKS again to everyone that helped me out!

the pre-clear involves writing zeroes to every sector on that drive, so that length time is not unusual.
