I have tried the following on a brand new Toshiba N300 8TB Disk that sits in my Odroid Hc2 running OMV 4:
parted /dev/sda
mklabel gpt
mkpart primary ext4 0% 100%
quit
mkfs.ext4 -L (partion name) /dev/sda1
When I mount partition in the Openmediavault interface after this, the disk says a click sound constantly. and i get the following fdisk error:
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sda1 65535 15628000379 15627934845 7.3T Linux filesystem
Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary.
Is the disk broken or do I do something completely wrong? (It is completely new)
