    Storage Spaces Error/issue


    Windows 10 Enterprise Ver 2004

    I have created a parity storage space with 4x 4TB SATA Drives. (D: drive) Formatted REFS

    Windows said the parity space is 9.67 TB using 14.1 TB pool capacity. That was fine by me as the D: reflected this.

    I have around 3TB of data on this storage space so I am left with around 6TB of Free space.

    I am now informed that the storage space pool is running out of space and I should add 3 drives!

    Each drive is according to storage spaces 97.6% used! even though in MY COMPUTER the drive D: has more than 6TB free


    Really confused ..

    Any ideas?

    TIA

    :)

    Storage Spaces Parity Repair?

    Hi: I'm a newbie here... using an OWC Thunderbay 6 DAS with Thunderbolt 3 for video/photo files using (Win 10 Home) Storage Spaces for the past 6 weeks without problems. Using Parity option in Storage Spaces to emulate RAID 5 protection.

    Today, got Parity Error in Manage Storage Spaces, though all 6 drives show "OK". Both Hard Disk Sentinel and CrystaDiskInfo also show normal drives. No pertinent drive events in Event Viewer.

    From reading other posts from folks with Storage Spaces issues, I'm inclined to "repair" this parity error if possible, and then consider migrating to DrivePool to avoid repetition or other future issues with SS. Can anyone walk me through how to do a parity repair?

    If not doable, then can someone detail a step-by-step process for migrating my 24Tb currently on Storage Spaces to Drivepool? Many thanks!
