Hi guys, I've used an nvme drive in TreNAS Scale, I created a "one drive" pool, then I realized that the drive is too small for my needs because of the 80% rule.
Then I successfully wiped it and wanted to use it for other purposes in Windows, but Windows does not detect the drive anymore, sometimes on and off it's showing the drive as a SCSI device, but the drive cannot be used in Windows, and Disk Manager freezes. If I bring it back to Truenas it works just fine.
I DO understand Truenas is using ZFS, and uses special formatting, partitioning etc. that Windows can't do, but what I don't understand is the following:
If I wiped this freaking drive in Truenas, then any formatting, partitioning or configuration that was done by Truenas when creating a ZFS pool should be gone from the disk, so that we can use the disk for other purposes. That's what wipe is, right? Why I cannot do it?
Please I need help, any suggestion would be highly appreciated, I don't want to throw away 150$
