I think you may be confusiong things here (I may be wrong, but that's how it appears to me).

 

GPT vs MBR is how the drive is initialized. This has nothing to do with the "SCSI" part on the drives.

And the GPT vs MBR isn't shown there, it's show in the disk details section. 

 

 

However, as for the "SCSI" bit, this is because of your controller card.  Some append "SCSI Device" on the disk when it passes it to the OS, and some don't. 

What controller card are these drives hooked up to.

 

And are these two different drives, or the same?

Sorry as I was not clear and I did not attach the correct screenshots.

 

Both drives are 4TB WD Reds connected via SATA internally. They are part of the 8TB pool. 

 

Windows disk manager says both drives are GPT.

 

Drive Scanner saying one is GPT other is MBR. (Attached screenshot)

I apogloze for the delay.

 

Most likely this is an issue with the data we're querying. 

 

If you could open up the SMART details on a drive, select the "Submit to bitflock" option, and send us the ID (post it here or open a ticket for it).

 

Aside from that, enable the "NoWmi" option for "SMART" may fix this as well:
