  1. Windows 11 does not recognize storage space/pool anymore, Windows thinks that they are raw


    Yesterday I started to upgrade my storage, since th current disks has a lot of hours.I created a new pool with new disks, and used Robocopy to copy the content from the old pool to the new one.It all went well, then after a reboot none of the pools are recognized anymore, the both show up as raw.In the settings aplet I can se that they both exist and they have data on them, for the new one 15TB of 27 is usedfor the old one 15 of 18 TB usedboth is set for two-way mirror.So, how do I solve this issue, seems like something in windows does not work correctly for some reason

    :)

    Storage Space and Space Pooling in x32Win10ProV20H2

    Thank you very much for your reply.


    You don't show a screenshot, so I am uncertain to which part of the process of creating a storage space you are referring. I pointed you to the tutorials. I now provide you with a screenshot of part of one of them, which shows a warning which might be what you are referring to.

    Your question about double storage / redundancy appears to relate to the normal operation of storage spaces once configured, so seems obscure.

    My impression is that few here have used storage spaces.

    Note too the warning in

    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 Spaces seems not much used, and some of those who have used it have had some bad experiences.

    As your experience suggests, maintaining the integrity of your disks- continuous monitoring for degradation- is vital.

    MS has broken Storage Spaces from time to time, in particular when upgrading:

    A couple of users have found moving a storage space from one PC to another didn't work.
