    I was trying to create using USB drives and despite trying different types of drives I kept getting the error above that no drives that work with storage spaces available... However when I google creating storage spaces it says that usb drives work.... How can this be fixed? Hoping I have posted in the correct forum... if not I apologize in advance...

    Storage Spaces with External Drives

    The meta data about the pool is stored on all the drives that make up the pool. When you connect the disks to another computer the pool will be recreated. You can actually test this functionality with a single disk and setting up a 'simple' storage space
    using any external HDD.

    Storage Spaces with External Drives

    I am considering getting an external enclosure for multiple HDDs and then using Storage Spaces to create a simple pool so it will be usable as one large space. My question is: if I connect this enclosure to another computer, how will that work? Will the
    other computer recognize the pool? Or will it show up as multiple drives? Not work at all? I don't currently have an easy way to test this right now and would appreciate anyone's experiences setting up a pool with external drives and then using them on another
    PC. Thanks!

    No drives that work with Storage spaces...

    Some problems I've seen with External USB drives is they don't always get the same drive letter after being removed then attached again, could be Storage Spaces is one on of those programs. Have you tried using Disk Management to assign a specific letter to the drive? Might also be helpful to use the same USB port each time.
