Software

VM: XPEnology 5.0-4528

Happy Christmas Days to everyone.

P.S.:

I also tried to RDM passthrough the five disk drives instead of the Lynx Point controller and ended also with an error because of the partition type 0xfd (I guess)

see: RDM pyhsical passthrough of disk problem with partition type 0xfd (raid autodetect arrays)

!!!! SOLVED !!!!!
