I have set up my freenas system and when i map a drive in windows to freenas the volume appears as 828k ? not sure where or what i have done wrong / missed ?

Hardware is as follows

rioworks hdama motherboard
2 opteron 275 proccessors
8 gig ecc ram
AMCC 3com 9500S-4LP raid card fitted 257 mb ram
4 western digital red 1TB drives
FREENAS 9.1.1. installed onto 8Gig Compact flash card fitted to ide - compact flash holder

drives are setup as raid 10 on 3com card so available space 1.8 TB
Mounted the drive - ada0 as Ext2

within freenas i have created a volume on disk ada0 named Drive - 1

i had to enter the command /mnt/Drive - 1 as it didn't appear in browse box as the instructions suggested ?

all permissions where ticked in the check boxes

Then i created a CIFS folder named share

Bit lost now

Any help advise please

steve

How did you mount the drives as ext2? Why would you do that?

Also I don't think you should have a dash and space in your volume name

there was a 'radio' button to mount as ext2
I chose this as he knows Linux and it saves a phone call when / if something goes wrong at least he can pop a drive into one of his systems and look at it ;)

how do I delete / rename that volume without the dash ?

That's not how you manage a freenas box. Have you read the documentation? You don't mount ext2 and then create a volume on it.
