I've extracted a 1TB Seagate HDD from an old Buffalo NAS and installed it into my N54L.
Despite extensive Googling, I can't get the darned thing to format to UFS from GUI or from Shell.
I've tried nfs, fdisk etc but I either get the GPT format error in GUI, or something like the below.
I'm a noob with this stuff, so I tried to think logically and remove any boot sectors or other stuff which I did from a Win PC. But that didn't work either.
Can anyone tell me how I might get this drive to work with FreeNAS please?
