Windows 10: Storage volumes

So why if I only have 8 volumes total, including the extra two partitions on drive C does it show so many volumes under device manager's storage volumes?

Any way to downgrade ver. of MS Storage spaces volume w/o data loss?

1. Install Windows 1607 & 1709 dual boot system
2. Connect two free disks
3. Boot into 1607
4. Create storage pool, assign two free disks, create two-way mirror volume
5. Copy data to new volume
6. Reboot into 1709
7. Upgrade your Storage Space pool to gain new features as MS suggests
8. Reboot into 1607
9. Your Storage Space configuration looks now as in the picture, volume is inaccessible
10. Notice that doing step 7 was not the smartest idea, data are now accessible only from Windows 1709.

Question: Is it possible to simply revert Storage Spaces metadata back to version 1607? Answer: No. It is necessary to backup data, destroy upgraded pool, create new pool & mirror in Windows 1607, and restore data.

Is it so hard to understand what necros asks for?

 

Disk management console view is not up-to-date

whoops i missed a step lol.



type in list volume..... your array volume should come up.... if so

type in Select volume 7
assign



let me know if your volume is not there.

WOW this sound even worse than a straight up RAID 0, This confirms I'll never use this feature if I ever need to have a RAID 0 Volume I'll use IRST

I still think if the OP has a full back up of the volume he should be able to restore it to a newer version of SS or a IRST Volume or a single drive
