Windows 10: Windows 10 Storage Pool Disappeared - "Unknown" partitions which cannot be assigned drive...

I created a Storage Pool in Windows 10 using two 4TB HDDs attempting to create them in a "RAID 1" configuration, everything was fine for a short period of time, however upon doing a fresh install of a new version of windows the pool has disappeared:



As far as Windows is concerned I no longer have a storage pool, the formatting on these drives is also unusual though it is mirrored.





I have been fighting for some time to try and recover these disks to no avail. I have a lot of important data on these disks (which I had hoped the Mirroring would add redundancy to) as well as some sentimental data that cannot be replicated, if Microsoft (or at least the Microsoft community) could help me with this I'd hugely appreciate it.

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?

Storage pools, update pool with RAID10

Hello,

So i got RAID10 done with storage pools combined with disk managment (4 drives, 2 mirrored pools done by windows storage spaces and then stripped partitions made by disk managment, creating "cheated" raid10), and i recently discovered that in storage spaces
window, i got info that i can update my pools to gain additional options.

My question is: is is safe for my "cheated" RAID10 array if i update the pools? I mean, if i do it, will storage pools recognize each other and disk managment will recreate my stripped partitions?

Please help, thank you.
