Nanobug Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Hello unRAID community. So, I'm close at getting the system for unRAID I'm planning to do. But before I throw myself into it all. What file system does unRAID use? If I plug in my current disks with NTFS, will I be able to use it with unRAID, or do I need to format them before I can use them with unRAID? Quote Link to comment

Nanobug Posted September 20, 2019 Author Share Posted September 20, 2019 Then I will need a new disk to transfer it to. Well, I'll be using Windows as my NAS until I get the disk I want for the unRAID system Quote Link to comment
