Windows 10: Files not downloading to the new storage space I added.

I recently got an external storage space on my computer called easystore, I went into settings and had new files go to this new storage space but they keep going to the original and I'm out of space. How do I fix this?

Crash when Adding Storage Space

Hi All,

Windows 10 crashed with an exception when I tried adding a new disk as a storage space. I had made the mistake of not adding the new disk to my system through disk management first before trying to add it as a storage space. The issue now is that I cannot
see my new disk listed in disk management nor does the disk appear under the storage space pool. If I go into device management, I see the disk driver for my missing hard disk listed in there, the disk also shows up in my CMOS settings. What now? How do I
remove this disk from the storage pool so that I can have it back as a stand alone disk? I have tried deleting the hard disk drivers and the ATA controllers to no avail.

 

Adding a Partition to Storage Space in Windows 10

Hi,

I have an HP Envy 750-287c with i7-6700U, 16G RAM, and 2x1TB HDD's. My PC originally had 1TB WD Blue HDD but I'm at 75% capacity. I decided to add a 2nd WD Blue HDD and create a storage space on the 2nd drive. I moved all of my files to this new "drive"
created via storage space. I partitioned the boot drive (1TB) to added the unused space to my storage space but the Storage Space GUI doesn't recognize the new partitioned drive. Can we NOT added a partitioned drive to a storage space? Microsoft doesn't
do a good job addressing this and i haven't seen a good response in any of the forums.

 

External Drive using storage spaces does not work on my new Win 10 PC?

Hi Leo,

Storage Spaces not only increase storage over time as you add drivers to your PC, it will also help you in protecting your data from drive failures. To isolate your concern, we'd like to know if you were getting any error messages when trying
to connect the external drive to your new PC. Also, can you tell us what troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

In the meantime, we suggest that you run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter to perform a diagnostic process on your system that will check and fix issues related to Storage Spaces. To do this, please follow the steps below:

• Type troubleshooting in the Search bar, then press
  Enter.
  
• Click View all from the left pane.
