Hi, I'm trying to install Truenas scale. I used a 16GB flash drive as the installation media and when I choose the drive to install the os on, I get "Chosen drives are not available for use in the truenas UI". It doesn't matter which drive I'm trying to use, sata SSDs/nvme SSDs/sata HDDs, every drive has the same problem.

I use:
AMD Ryzen 5 3400g
MSI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI
Samsung 860 250GB - desired boot ssd
Samsung 980 pro 1TB
3×seagate Ironwolf pro 10TB
16GB DDR4 RAM

I attached the picture of the message and a video of the installation attempt.

I have never used truenas before, so I don't know all the terms, if you can speak in simple terms and in a detailed manner I would be grateful.

Make sure your install drive has no partitions nor partition table.

I can't watch the video for some reason, but did you actually select the desired disk? Press the space bar to select the disk/device you want to install to. Lots of people miss this.
