[Help] Change from Traid to Single Disk

Post by ajpt »

Hey

I would like to change from Triad to Single Disk

So far, I have deleted the volume of it and then tried to delete the Storage Pool - in the hope I can create a new one with Single Disk label.
Storage Pool disappears for a second then reappears still with the Traid label

Any help would be appreciated.

Obviously total Noob here

Many thanks in advance

TRAID is a kind of storage pool, so only delete the volume that will not help. The only way is to delete your current storage pool and create a new one.

Do you think it is advisable to completely reset the NAS and reconfigure it from scratch?

Resetting the NAS (system) typically only resets the system configuration and does not affect the structure or configuration of the storage partitions.

Physically, pull out one of the disks that are part of the traid. Format that disk in a different system. Insert the disk and mount it as a single disk. Then copy the data off the degraded traid volume... then delete the traid pool.

Oh, NM its a new pool. Well if it is an exiting raid with data... my solution would work. ;)
