  2. How to remove external hard disk from storage pool on Windows 10

    Hi Velen,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern about removing the external hard disk from storage pool, we will help you with this issue.

    Try the below steps to: Remove a physical disk by using Windows PowerShell
    and check if it helps.


    • Press Windows
      key from the keyboard, type Windows PowerShell and select
      Run as administrator.


    • Enter the command replacing <diskname> with the disk name:

      • Set-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName <diskname> -Usage Retired
    (If the pool is clustered, you will need to run this command on the cluster node which has the cluster resource for the pool online.)

    3. Prior to performing step 5, you must wait for all active repair jobs to complete. To monitor the status of repair jobs, type the following command:
    Get-StorageJob

    4. Type the following command: Remove-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName <diskname>

    5. Physically disconnect the old disk.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
