My disks look like this after removing them from the Proxmox Raid10 that I had as a Backup, how can I fix it?

Hello Everyone, I had 4 HDDs in Raid10 in Proxmox, after making a mistake in my Proxmox server I decided to move my Disks to a Windows Machina, Now my Disks look like in the Screenshot attached. How can I delete those partitions? it does let me extend or delete them. Does anyone understand why this is happening? and how can I fix it? Thanks

MBR supports only up to 2 TB per partition.
To not have this limitation, you need to initialize the disk(s) with GPT.

Hi, Neobin, thank you for the information and your time, can I initialize that with a Partition Manager in Windows OS?

Sure:

I will try right now, thank you for the info

It does not work, I deleted the partition but still does not let me make one Disk from both partitions

Did you follow all steps in the second link? Especially step 4:

Select and hold (or right-click) the MBR disk to convert to the GPT format, and select Convert to GPT Disk.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/w...sk#use-disk-management-to-convert-an-mbr-disk

Looking at your screenshot from that "MiniTool Partition Wizard" tool, there is also an option: "Convert MBR Disk to GPT Disk". Maybe this works better for you?!

Depending on how much the problem differs from the current topic, I would generally recommend to create a new thread for a new topic.
But, do as you see fit, of course.
