Breaking a HA device removes all data?

[Manos_Arriba]

Hi,

I have Starwind v5.4 and I had a HA device, I removed the target and then added a new one as a Basic Virtual device and mounted the existing IMG file. I used the iscsi initiator on my cluster server and then went to disk management and the disk seemed empty, it was uninitialised. Is this supposed to happen?

I am using Windows Server 2008 R2 DataCenter on all of the servers.
