Missing drives

[Nightowl805]

I finialy got Freenas re-installed after lots of tinkering in the bios. During the install I disabled the SSATA with 3 six TB drives attached. After install I re-e

nabled the drives and rebooted. Freenas can see all d
the drives except when I try to build the ZFS2 volume.

Anyone no how to add the extra drives or does it have to be done with another fresh install?

If FreeNAS can see all the drives but the volume manager isn't offering all of them for creating a pool, then my guess is that it's seeing the drives as in use. If so, wiping out the partition tables should do the trick. If not, my hypothesis is probably wrong.

I got lucky. I was searching around and found the update tab. A couple of small updates and a reboot and all the drives were available. I am happy.
