ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer drive not adding (RNDP600E)
Hello & happy summery winter Saturday! Question on Pro Pioneer 6.9.6
I have hot removed a 16TB WD Red Pro HDD in slot #2 and added a brand new 18TB WD181KFGX, however the volume is not rebuilding using the new HDD.
Have I done something out of order? Should I remove the new HDD and connect via SATA adapter to a computer and look for any factory partitions that need removing? I never needed to do that before with a brank new WD HDD...

There are errors in the log files for the new disk

BTW, you shouldn't post the log zip publicly - there is privacy leakage when you do that. I've redacted your link.
Thank you times two Stephen!
Q: Can I re-insert the old HDD back into that slot 2 and get redundency back in the meantime??
