I just installed freenas for the first time. on my windows i had 2 2TB hard drives setup as a RAID1. I have got these drives installed in my NAS, but am not having any luck with importing them into the new system... I do NOT want to wipe them, and sadly i dont have a large enough external drive to copy the files to... Any ideas? Is it even possible? It was a software based raid. I have tried to import the drives one at a time but i get a error labeling volume error.

Thanks

Hi wcombs,

I don't think it's possible. That said, I would certainly encourage you to stop poking it until you find out one way or the other.
