I'm replacing my drives in my server and using the freenas auto expand to grow the size of the array. Whenever I put my new drives in and go to the prompt to replace the missing disk, I get a warning message saying it has detected another partition or zfs pool; the only way I can replace the missing drive is if I check the "force" box. Before I put them in the server I tested these drives with seatools, afterwards I checked them with disk management on windows and "wiped" them using freenas gui. They have never been formatted.
Is this normal? I don't recall having to do this when I expanded my array fall last year.
Sorry if it's a stupid question.
