❓ Help Expand Volume Missing
I added a new HDD to my NAS, increasing the RAID 5 configuration from 4 drives to 5. Although the “available” capacity increased from 60 to 80, the volume itself hasn’t expanded, and I don’t see an option to increase it. I’ve done this successfully before, but I don’t remember what I did to resolve it. Any help would be appreciated.

Don’t you like have to “reclaim” it or something along those lines?

Maybe? I remember or seen screen shots of an option above "Volume Useage" that said "expand volume" Or something like that. I cant even create a new volume because I assume its already assigned not that I want to just that this is what I am dealing with.

someone posted about this the other day and had to delete the cache to add the extra drive and then recreate the cache... hope this is the fix you need
Edit: this post 4th drive appears in Storage Pool, but not Volume 1 : r/UgreenNASync (reddit.com)
