June 13, 20206 yr I have a bad cache drive and want to replace it. I was using a 500g hard drive and bought a SanDisk Ultra 1tb 3D SSD to replace it with. I put the SSD in the hotswap cartridge and slid it into the server and the light comes on showing it's powered up but on the unraid GUI I can't select it as a drive. I searched and really can't find a good way to troubleshoot this, it seems everyone else just plugs their SSDs in and they work? I've rebooted the server, tried to make sure the drive is well seated, tried different slots, all no luck.
