Hello, I am currently testing my new FreeNAS server.
To copy the data (2.5 TByte) from the old to the new server I connected a SATA backup disk (=NTFS logical partition) and wanted to copy the data to the NAS via 'Import Disk'.
However, I get an error message when I click at 'Import Disk-> save' and I suspect that I have to change the partition to 'Primary':
At first sight I didn't find any board resources in FreeNAS that could do this. Is this really the case? Do I really have to remove the disk or boot the server with another OS (e.g. Knoppix) to change the partition/boot record? Does anyone have any good advice?

Code:
Mount failed (exit code 12): NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/ada0p1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/ada0p1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS
