I am setting a new home server with OMV on an ASRock DeskMini A300 Barebone, which has the AMD A300 chipset and supports RAID 0 and 1. I have a pair of identical 2TB drives in the system. I've already installed OMV 6.
I'd like to stripe/RAID 0 the drives to form a single 4TB volume for data storage. I've already followed the instructions in the manual for creating a RAID 0 array in BIOS setup. Unfortunately the remainder of the manual is Windows-specific. I have not created a partition table or created partitions on the drives.
However, I'm having trouble getting the drives to be seen as a single volume. Despite having enabled hardware RAID, the drives still show up as 2 separate drives in the OMV interface on the Storage > Disk page. In the software RAID page in OMV the drives do not appear as options in the devices list. I've enabled the LVM plugin, but the drives do not show in the devices list on the LVM > Physical Volumes page either.
As an experiment, I've deleted the array in BIOS setup and set the controller to SATA instead of RAID, but this has not had any effect in OMV.
How might I either use the system's RAID functionality or stripe these driver together some other way?
Thanks.
