Disk not listed when adding a volume

[Naatan]

I have a fresh install of FreeNAS 11.1, I want to add a volume but it does not list any disks. When I go to View Disks it lists my disk just fine.

Note I only have one single disk attached at the moment, the same one FreeNAS is installed on.

Output of `gpart list`:

I'm not sure how to continue. Any advice?

You can't install FreeNAS on your data disks. You must install FreeNAS on a separate boot device such as a USB stick, SSD or hard drive.

I would suggest that you read the manual linked at the top of the page as well or in the GUI of FreeNAS as this is all explained there.

Thanks, I'll reinstall to a separate hard disk.

Thanks, I'll reinstall to a separate hard disk.

You can do that, but a small flash device is what's normally recommended. Anything at least 16 GB would be fine, though we do tend to favor SSDs over USB sticks. But a small hard drive (or mirrored pair of them, if desired) will work too.

Yeah, I used an old 160GB hard disk I had lying around.
