I tried to reconfig from raid 0 to raid 1 my t2 - 12 tera- g-raid through macos disk utility but it works only if i select another external hd.
I would like to config as 6 tera raid1, how to do it?
You need to use the G-RAID configurator.
After it has been converted, you then Erase it in Disk Utility.
Done, works, but the process was a little bit more complicate.
I’m describing so that it might be of help for someone else
- I’m working on High Sierra, and the raid drive is g-tech thunderbolt 2 (only T plugs and usb on the back)
- g-raid config does not see the hd in the format out of the box
- When new/empty I reformatted to the new file system APFS, now the G-RAID CONFIGURATOR utility sees it (after a little while)
4 then I selected raid 1, executed the utility, and - after that in MAC OS Disk utility I reformatted it as asked (for some strange reason I guess one of the partitions is still in Mac Os journaled) and the disk appears as raid with 6Tera. I hope it works as Raid1 now
- the process failed a few times (the Configurator gave an error message after starting the RAID1 conversion process, so I reformatted back in MAC OS journaled, and then back to APFS and started the process again)
- Lost the icon (minor problem)
Ciao
