The first time I set up a FTP server i had no problems and i could select the disc but now it doesn't appear.
I tried 2 NUCS for the 2nde attempt but on both it doesn't appear.
Why did it find the disc the first time but now not?
What can I do about it?

Please supply complete hardware, TrueNAS version and general configuration of your server. It is helpful to read the Forum Rules, listed above in red, to compose a forum thread that supplies information that we can use to help you.

TrueNAS-13.0-U3.1, CPU Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-8109U CPU @ 3.00GHz, 260 GB SSD, normally to set up the ftp I need to make a user - configure ftp services - connect them -... but every guide starts with creating a Pool which I can't right now. The disc says it has the boot pool but in the first time i made a ftp server, the disc just appeared when adding a pool

Thats not a list of hardware. Its a list of some of the components
I can see issued with the following:
1. NUC - Really - a NUC. Those are generally small and entirely not suitable
2. the abbreviated hardware list you provided mentioons a single SSD and no HDD's. TN uses the entire disks as its boot-pool, so any data pool needs different disks

Are you sure you have the right hardware for TN?

Yes, very sure. Worked with a GIVEN NUC at college and a while ago succeeded on a NUC so yes. Sure.
I fixed it already with adding a USB.
One thing u said was right and that's that Truenas took the whole 230 GB as boot-pool but the strange thing then is that it didn't do that before.

USB Disks are not reccomended - they I guess can be tolerated for boot disks, but not as a data pool

TrueNAS ALWAYS takes the entire disk as a boot-pool. If it didn't then something went badly wrong
