@oldbell Hello there, and welcome the the Rockstor community forum.

I think the issue you had was to put spaces between the options: if you need more than one option (such as you got working) try no spaces, i.e.:

noatime,ssd,rw

We should improve the error message there. I.e. see the space in front of “rw” in the brackets:
“mount option( rw) no allowed. …”
The message then goes on about checking for no whitespaces - that’s basically spaces or returns or the like.

Hope that helps. You can always change it in the Pool details page under Extra mount options.

While it is stated in the info text that no spaces should be used when entering the mount options, I created a github issue for this, in case there is time/capacity to address this at some point (after other, urgent priorities have been taken care of).
