new SSD not visible in disk list

Dear OMV users,

I attempt the setup of a small NAS based on a Mini PC:

fanless Bmax B1 plus (N4000/8 GB RAM/128 MMC).

I also ordered a 1 TB plugged in to the PCI M.2 2280 drive bay. This SSD is new, still not formatted by me otherwiese.

The installation process of OMV went fine. I performed an update to v6.9.11

My router provides DHCP. To access the NAS with one of my computers is successful with the http-numbers 192.168.xxx

My question (as unexperienced debian user): I do not see the extra SSD! So I can't format it to create a file system.

The disk display only shows the system disk /dev/mmcblk0 with some 116 Gb.

And I did not find a command line window to perform own checks and mountings.

Any hint to overcome this issue is appreciated.

kind regards, Wolfram

Hi macom,

thanks for the hint to the New User Guide.

I went through it completely. I also installed some of the OMV-Extras. All went fine so far.

But coming to the chapter "A Basic Data Drive" I did NOT see my installed 1 TB SSDdrive, as reported earlier.

I.e. there is only the system drive /dev/mmcblkop2 but not as expected a /dev/sda for my data to share in my local net.

What can I do further?
Is there a manual mounting necessary? If so, any hints for that procedure inside OMV?
Otherwise I don't see any other way than to take the SSD out, put it to an USB-interface an plug this into my Linux notebook, to format it with the means there.

Thanks for your response...
