GorOps Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Hello, I followed the Shrinking Array wiki guide and maybe amd over the last couple of weeks I have removed two drives from my array. Things are working fine but I'm wondering if the disk number on the Main tab should be readjusted or if there is some hidden placeholder where the old disks were. Screenshot attached: https://imgur.com/a/kfYWqcE If I add a new drive to the array in the future, will that new disk take the disk 4 slot currently hidden? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Doesn't hurt anything to skip disk numbers. It's all up to how much your OCD can handle before flipping outSent from my phone as I'm probably having a beer and enjoying a fire Quote Link to comment

If you assign it to disk4, it will. The slots aren't hidden when the array is stopped. Quote Link to comment
