Do new drives have to be formatted in truenas?

[GIBURROWS]

I've had a 2 bay synology for a while but now I'm thinking of using an old HPz600 with a few new drives to set up truenas and then hopefully adding my 2 drives full of stuff from the synology... Is this possible?

Thanks in advance chaps.

Another question for you lovely bunch, Can truenas be launched from a PC with only a displayport gpu, I have a quddro 450 with 4 displayports and get no screen when I try and boot up?

I got around it with a displayport to hdmi connector
