Unable to create Raid 5

[omega8314]

Hello,

 

I am unable to create a Raid 5 on this dell optiplex 3020 I put 3 20tb ironwood pro drives in. I can create a mirror with the drives just fine no issues but that only uses two drives obviously. I've attached an picture to better understand the problem and show the complete error. The first picture is the regular boot and the second is the debug boot. 

 

I thought it might be the on board sata controller but I get the same error with a sata pcie card.

Ive checked the bios and all three drives are detected in hexos

Why are you trying to do raid foe HExOs that does not support raid ? If you are trying to use thoes 3 drives in hexos you need to let it create the pool for you

That's the output when I click create pool in hex os.

I click create pool and then it says it completes but never shows up

Have you tried going into the truenas UI and erasing the drives ?

[omega8314]

I haven't. I'm not sure how to do that.

Look at the guide THAT IS HERE

I think i have a bad hard drive. I swapped with another drive of the same make and size and no issues . That log output seems to indicate there is something not completing.
