So you installed Rockstor on a USB stick and boot it from there. But then you also have:

@h0ysala

Pre-Used SSDs with partitions with fat and BTRFS used.

How many SSDs, which models and capacities?

How are they partitioned? MBR/GPT? Order and sizes?

What filesystem on which partition?

I can see some of that from the screenshots provided, but is that all there is? Or are there disks, partitions or filesystems Rockstor didn’t detect.

@h0ysala welcome to the Rockstor community.

Additionally, in the documentation it is recommended to wipe the disks before re-using them for Rockstor, especially if they have various partitions set up (similar to @tachikoma’s questions). See also

https://rockstor.com/docs/installation/pre-install-howto.html#wiping-disks

How are the SSDs connected to the Rockstor instance? If using certain enclosures that don’t provide a unique serial ID per drive, Rockstor will not recognize them correctly, as it relies heavily on the unique identifiers. You can find a few posts on this forum of such scenarios.
