I migrated my home server to Talos, but I have a disk with data that I want to add as a user volume. It’s LUKS, ext4 and the data is rclone encrypted for e2e Webdav.
I see the following on the documentation, but I’m just worried that it might format the drive and/or otherwise mess with the data.

Yes. I have 2 backups, but I kind of also want to go through this exercise of loading a full disk into Talos. I would also really rather avoid restoring a backup (I did check the backups).
Is it safe to simply add this disk as a volume? Do I need to do anything special to ensure it simply mounts without getting messed up?

I don’t know anything about Talos but can you try it in a VM with a test disk? That should answer all your questions and show you possible pitfalls.
