Hi guys, I'm back. FreeNAS has been working great since I got this up and running 2 years ago. Been updating it throughout. I've hit a limit.
I' down to the 6TB and getting the yellow light thatI'm running out of space. As some people know, which helped me early on, I have a 16 bay chassis (3U Supermicro 16 bays Storage Server Chassis SC836E26-R1200 SAS2-836EL2 6Gbs). I have 12 6TB WD reds inside. I just purchased 4 more WD 8TB drives to fill the bay.
I'm running into a problem. I can't see the 4th drive. No matter if I swap another drive in the slot I don't see the drive, I can't see a drive in that slot. I only see da0-da14. What could it be?
Also, how can I add these drives to expand my current Plex drive I've basically built this server for?
Thanks
