Windows 10: Windows 10 Reset For A Specific Drive

Can I just reset the drive with my windows installation without touching my other drives?


These drives are virtual not physical.


And how different is a reset from just right clicking the drive and forfmatting it?

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Need specifics on RAID 10

Thinking of doing RAID 10, because out of all the RAID options it seems to be the best option based on my research.

I need to know:

• Specific hardware to get? Besides the drives obviously. Names or links appreciated
• I want to have as many as 10 drives. Currently I have 6.
• I have 5TB of space used up. So does this mean that I need to have a spare 5TB of space that I can't use in the array, in order to create the array (since I don't want to lose my data)?
• Is there any such thing as Dynamic RAID, as in, can add more hard drives to the array without resetting a new array?
• Do I need a full backup of my most important and sensitive data, separate from the RAID, if I have RAID 10?
