I have a Pegasus R6 Raid 5 configuration - six 4TB drives - that was used for Time Machine backup on a different mac. I'd like to wipe all files, regain the 16TB of space and repurpose for regular file storage use. Is there a way to delete all the backup files (12TB), using Promise Utility?
Pegasus R6 completely wipe/delete all files with Promise Utility?

Hi David,
The simplest way to do this is to initialize the LUN.
First start the CLI by opening a terminal and typing...
promiseutil
Assuming the default configutation the init command will be,,,
init -a start -l 0 -q 1024
After this you'll need to open the macos Disk Utility and format the LUN.
