    storage pools


    I have three 1 TB drives in my computer. Two of them are configured as a RAID1 mirrored drive, and the third drive is for backup. Today, for the first time, I became aware of storage pools, and when I explored my setup, I found that some space on my RAID1 drive is assigned to storage pools. I believe that proper setup would be to use only the backup E: drive in the storage pool, but I am not sure about that, or how to free up the RAID drive D: from use in storage pools. I'd appreciate some help in understanding how I should be using storage pool functionality and how to get there.

    :)

    How to remove a bad drive in Windows 10 storage spaces pool

    Could someone list the steps involved in replacing a bad drive from a Windows 10 storage spaces pool? I cannot find any info on the Microsoft support site that is specific to Windows 10. Also, could you list the steps to remove a 'good' drive and replace
    it with another drive if the process is different?
