I need to change a drive in the Helios64, and so I bought a new WD 2TB drive.
Using a WD My Book 111D USB enclosure, I have partitioned, formatted and copied the data from the old drive. But when I change the drives to put the new one in the Helios64, the drive appears unformatted. See below.
I can't understand what's happening, when I plug it back through USB everything is back to normal.
Does the partitioning through USB differ somehow???
It appears as if the partition table "stays in the USB enclosure", which doesn't make sense for me.
Is there something to try?
Do I have to start again the process in the NAS enclosure? I don't want to spend 6+ hours copying everything back...
I'm using armbian 5.10.35-rockchip64, and OMV 5.
The disk appears in /dev/sda. When connected through SATA:

Hello
I need to change a drive in the Helios64, and so I bought a new WD 2TB drive.
Using a WD My Book 111D USB enclosure, I have partitioned, formatted and copied the data from the old drive. But when I change the drives to put the new one in the Helios64, the drive appears unformatted. See below.
I can't understand what's happening, when I plug it back through USB everything is back to normal.
Does the partitioning through USB differ somehow???
It appears as if the partition table "stays in the USB enclosure", which doesn't make sense for me.
Is there something to try?
Do I have to start again the process in the NAS enclosure? I don't want to spend 6+ hours copying everything back...
