Windows 10: Storage Spaces disk access really slow

So been using Windows 11 since launch, with no choice ofcourse well initially there was but that ship has sailed and now cant "Go back" only reinstallAfter the previous update, a 6 disk Storage Spaces Simple setup has come to an issue.All the data is intact and i can use it fine BUT, accessing the drives for purposes of copying to or from averages out below 10MB/s. Sometimes they start above 100MB/s but quickly drops to an average of 3-4MB/s. The contents are mostly media/backups, which until this issue were getting backed up to another PC aswell but that has grind to a halt with the drive

Cannot access Storage Space

I've created a problem with Storage Spaces by changing the drive letter in Windows 10. This has caused a Storage Spaces error, and I can no longer see the Storage space in File Explorer.

Disk Management shows the drive as unallocated.

I now have the following situation. The 2 drives in the storage space are the ones shown as 931.5GB (or Disk 4 in the Management image). (it was originally set up as 10Tb but only 2 x 2tb physical disks initially)










Any suggestions as to whether I can correct this. Thanks

Colin

There are times when your Windows PC will let you know that it's low on disk space to prevent information loss. When your PC doesn't have enough disk space, it will affect the performance of your PC. Please answer these questions so we can isolate the cause
of your concern:
