Windows 10: Does Windows 10 warn users of failed arrays in Windows Storage Spaces?

Hello,

I have recently started using Windows Storage Spaces for RAID 1 protection of some of my data. I have been unable to determine if and how Windows Storage Spaces warns a user of any sort of failure to an array. Is this built in or would it be best to use another software to assist in monitoring arrays and checking for any issues?

Thanks!

:)

See my 1st post, Zabbix for example, but scheduled Powershell script is much simpler

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Snapshot taken during 2nd tier repair process (yes, it is necessary to add disks to one tier only and repair each tier separately to avoid the dreaded "Return Code: The configuration database is full." error):





All done, both the RAID1 and RAID6 tiers are OK again. Tiered volume D: was fully accessible all the time, even during repair steps. But yes, "Windows storage spaces are very unreliable and break easily" if someone really really wants....
