How to install volumes (9.1.1)

[DaBr56]

It finds the disks but I can't import volumes.
I tried with NTFS but it says wait (for hours).
My disks are brand new, formated to NTFS with Hiren's Boot CD - mini XP
Any suggestions?

NTFS import via GUI is broken in 9.1.1
It has been fixed in the upcoming 9.2.0, see https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/3318

For a workaround from CLI, see http://forums.freenas.org/threads/import-volume-ntfs-disk-with-data.15667/

EDIT:
Also, don't use NTFS with FreeNAS. It has been discussed in several threads why this is not a good idea.

If they're brand new (don't contain any data), you don't want to import. Instead, you want to use one of the Volume Managers to format the disks in ZFS or UFS. While ZFS is recommended, you should first check that your hardware meets the minimum requirement in the Guide.

I tried with ZFS but now I got this message
Unable to GPT format the disk "ada2"

Suddenly it worked and I have a new running system, thanks for the support.
