I made sure to disable it before wiping the drive so when installing Pop_OS!, it wouldn't try to boot from a non-existent windows partition. Thanks to everyone who helped out, we didn't get this issue figured out, but I learned some stuff, so I'm calling that a win, and my wallet took a loss. ![]() But it works, and that's all that matters. So, TL DR, I didn't "lose" any available space, everything is fine, I just had to spend over $600 CAD on new NVMe's, spend days backing up my data, and format all of my HDD's. Now what about throwing money at it? This seems like it was free right? What about the loss of 2TB of SSD storage, well, Amazon had some 1TB NVMe's on sale, so I bought three, when they come in next week, I'm making another RAID5 as my boot drive.Īt the end of the day, I'm only losing ~500gb of SSD storage, but being on Linux, I don't need a lot of the old programs I did before and with almost my entire "games SSD" not needed as I rarely ever have time to game and when I do, it's usually Forza or Halo so I just hit up the xBox since those aren't Linux compatible anyway, so on Linux I'm basically gaining 500GB of potential storage for video editing. Once those bad boys were also backed up, I wiped them all, configured a RAID5, so now I have ~16tb RAID5 array, formatted to Ext4, bingo, bango, all HDD's working and I'm now just sitting here crying while I'm waiting for this blistering fast USB 2.0 speeds of my old externals to finished restoring all of my data to the new ~16TB RAID5 backed up all drives to every one of my old external drives I had to go searching for around the house, removed the two SSD's completely once the last one was backed up, now the three internal 8TB HDD's are SATA ports 1, 2, and 3. I tossed that 3rd 8TB internal into the computer, it wouldn't come up at all so I figured it was something else, must be BIOS related? many search later Turns out my motherboard disables SATA ports 5 and 6 if you use NVMe, so, two 1TB SSD's in ports 1 and 2, two 8tb drives in 3 and 4, new drive in 5 (not coming up because it was disabled from NVMe use) and the external 8TB comes up and works with NTFS, so, figured that issue out, but the NTFS drive were still not working, so, my solution. After not being able to access the NTFS drives, but I was able to access my one 8TB external, I ruled this out as "it's probably just a bug with 20.04", so after running benchmarks comparing NTFS to Ext4, with how much faster Ext4 is compared to NTFS, this was actually great this happened because I wouldn't have otherwise looked into Ext4. I make YouTube videos almost every two days and I'm currently saving everything to my 512gb NVMe so it's going to fill up fast without my archives accessible, any suggestions?ĮDIT: SOLVED (kind of) I solved my issue, well, I didn't "solve" it, I just threw money at it and now it works. Everything I've found online just says latest Linux releases can already read and write NTFS, and any issues just uninstall ntfs-3g and install it again, which I did, and it did nothing for me. Had audio issues with 18.04 LTS and 19.10, but 20.04 partially fixed them, so 20.04 is currently my only option, and I can't seem to find anything about this being a bug or not, but I can't write to my NTFS drives, I have four 8TB HDD and two 1TB SSD's, all of which are still NTFS as I just switched from Windows, I can read all drives just fine but I can't write to any of them. ![]()
