soong Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I accidentally booted up w/o by cache drive connected... I didn't start the array but for some reason it showed up as "unassigned" vs "missing". I rebooted and it looks normal (I can see it in unassigned devices as a "btrfs" file system)... When I assign it to the cache slot it comes up as "New Device". It is safe to start up the array like that? Will it recognized it or will lose the files that are on it? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 It's fine assuming it was a single device cache and there's no "all data on device device will be deleted at array start" or similar warning in front of it. Quote Link to comment
