Hello all,
I been having some problems with my setup.
I have FreeNAS-11.3-U1 (Love the new interface!) running a Intel NUC5CPYB with a Mediasonic PRORAID (HFR2-SU3S2FW) on USB3 port. This RAID unit can run in Single Disk mode and various RAID modes. I know that the Hardware RAID mode is not recommended for FreeNAS so I've been using Single mode (4 individual disks). This unit uses the JMicron USB to ATAATAPI Bridge. I've seen other post with this keyword in them but didn't see any help for my situation.
So my problem is that I can only see one drive, the last drive in cabinet. If I pull out one then I see the next one up. In Windows or in Linux I see all drives fine and can mount and write data, etc.
When I look into what FreeNAS sees its this:
So am I correct to understand that because the disks all show the same serial number that FreeNAS assumes its a multipath scenario? That's what it looks like.
Is there any way to help FreeNAS understand this is 4 separate disk? I know some USB vendors don't do unique serial numbers and that's not a great idea but trying to understand if I can do anything to get this working.
Thanks for any help!
