USB 2.0 External RAID Not Recognized by RN314 with OS 6.2.0
Hi Everyone, I recently purchased a new ReadyNAS 314 running OS 6.2.0. Everything has worked great with only one technical problem. I'm using an old external Iomega RAID enclosure for as a backup...
The NAS sees a Seagate ST3750840AS drive attached with no partition table, which I assume is your iomega drive. Currently we don't support external drives without a partition table, but we will support it in our next firmware release.
Hi cleveland_rocks,
Thanks for your feedback. Once the logs were sent, I let you know what I find.
Kind regards,

Yes, that's one of the Seagate drives in the external Iomega box. I actually have two 750 GB drives in a RAID 0 configuration. When I used Gparted to reformat the striped array to ext4, I must not have created a GPT; I'll try that and post how it works.
Thanks for the help. May the force be with you Skywalker.
I just reformatted again starting by creating a partition table. It now works great - shows the full amount I need for my backup.
Thanks again.
