Hello, Can anyone guide me to how to meet my objective?
System – TrueNAS v12.0, Generic Platform
Objective – Copy data from TrueNAS Z-Pool (/mnt/Raid-Z) to external HDD connected to TrueNAS box via USB.
Q1- What File Format does the Ext HDD need to be?
Ive tried NTFS and Ext4 (both of which I can see the Ext HDD mounted in Storage/Disks.
So far the only way I have found to copy data to the Ext HDD is to make the Ext HDD its own pool. But in doing so, it then formats the Ext HDD to a ZFS (which Im not interested in doing). I would like to keep either the NTFS or Ext4 file format.
I would like to copy data via from Raid-Z to Ext HDD from the TrueNAS shell
ie: cp -r /mnt/Raid-Z/Documents /mnt/ExtUSB/Documents
Can anyone tell me what I need to do for meeting my objective?
