This is probably a stupid question, but I can't find an explanation anywhere.
I always used my AS5002T with just one disk. Single volume, 4TB.
Then I finally added a second one, 10TB, not intending to use it in RAID.
The wizard only gave me the option to create the new volume as Single. I picked it.
Now I have two Single volumes and no options to change anything. Would that mean that JBOD is in place?
I can't use the second volume. File Explorer looks exactly the same as before.
I wonder if it's just waiting for the first disk to fill before it starts using the second?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Added a new drive = two single drives

No it's not JBOD. You'll need to add shares to the new volume2.

Oh, through Access Control? I get it now, many thanks!
I can live with that, but just so I understand, is any RAID or JBOD configuration out of question at this point given the current status (see picture below)?
I find funny that I had no option to choose.

You only have the option to convert disk 1 to raid 1 but you'll need to reinitialize disk 2 and go through the advanced wizard but don't think you want to waste your 10tb as the raid 1 will result to only 4tb size which is smallest of the array. JBOD spanning can only be done from scratch.
