Hiya,
I am new to FreeNAS.
Just got a new machine for storage.
Bought 6 new sas drives.
All the 6 drives show up nice in FreeNAS.
Running FreeNAS-9.10.1-U2
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5630 @ 2.53GHz
32729MB
It is a PowerEdge C2100
So I'll show you what I do and what errors I get
First I try all 6 disk into a volume I get:
out: Unable to GPT format the disk "da0"
So il try to wipe the disks:
out: Failed to wipe da0: dd: /dev/da0: Invalid argument 1+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.007177 secs (0 bytes/sec)
Next il try to do it differnt:
gpart destroy /dev/da0
gpart: Device not configured
Then I checked importing volume.
It cant but it tells me that the disk are in ntfs.
Than googled some more and tryed some more commands:
Welcome to FreeNAS
Please assist.
All the drives are empy so no harm can come to them.
Just checked the bios
in bios it says
Ide configuration
Confiure SATA#1 as [raid] is this correct?
