Hi all,
I have a Zpool with 2x3TB drives. I want to take my spare 2TB and add it as a basic data repository for transfers. That is, i don't want it in my Zpool, I want it on my freenas installation as a separate drive so I don't have to worry about the drive going down and causing my existing pool issues... I just want to use this one 2TB's space to transfer already backed-up data and share it throughout users in the house. Is this doable, or do all need drives added get extended into the pool ?
