Error when trying to make a new volume

[wajahatahmadkhan]

i already have another volume of 12 x 4tb drives running perfectly on this machine
but i've added a new 4tb drive and trying to make a new volume from it but keep getting the same error again and again, tried changing the sata port as well.
i've checked the drive on another windows system and its working perfectly there giving 100% health as well

Here is the error

So let me understand you correctly, you are trying to create a new vdev using a single hard drive and you are not trying to join it to your current vdev of 12 drives, right? I'm sure it was clear to you when you typed in the message but you cannot leave it up for interpretation for us or we may provide you bad advice by accident. You could provide us the step you are taking that gets you to this error message. I don't do encrypted drives but when I see a message about passwords then I think "is this person creating an encrypted drive?"

While I don't always like to say this, have you tried to upgrade to FreeNAS 11.1-U6 and try it, assuming you are not trying to add another drive to your vdev of 12 drives?

The old volume isnt being upgraded. Creating a new separate volume using 1 4tb drive. And not using encryption

Did you power down the system to attach the drive? Just making sure you did not try a hot swap connection. I assume you have rebooted the system. What are your system specs?

 

[wajahatahmadkhan]

Yes rebooted it several times and getting the exact same error
