Hi,
I'm piecing together my FreeNAS rig. Upon creating the volume for the first time, I see that several drives (ada5, and ada6) have this error:
ada5: the primary GPT table is corrupt or invalid. using the secondary instead -- recovery strongly advised.
It's my understanding that if the drive is not blank, and it has been used before, this can happen. I believe I used a few of the drives in a Mac Pro and formatted for macOS with a Guid Partition Table.
I want to make sure I get this perfect before the data migration process.
Thank you.

- Do I need to be concerned with this error?
- If so, how do I go about fixing this?
- Will I need to recreate my pool after fixing it?
