Make sure to bind the disk via its UUID (obtainable via `lsblk -o name,uuid`) instead of its name (`/dev/sdc`), to prevent ever binding the wrong disk when the drive letters happen to change.

The device needs to be totally empty (without any partition table) otherwise DSM does not always format it into a volume. Make sure to bind the disk via its UUID (obtainable via `lsblk -o name,uuid`) instead of its name (`/dev/sdc`), to prevent ever binding the wrong disk when the drive letters happen to change.
> [!CAUTION]
> Do NOT use this feature with the goal of sharing files from the host, they will all be lost without warning when DSM creates the volume.
