    I have windows 11 Pro and have had a Storage Space for awhile now with minimal issues. Now when I try to open the drive that the storage space is set as, it says "This Folder is Empty"On the Storage Spaces hub in Control Panel I am able to see the existing Storage Space/Pool and all drives are reporting as healthy. I am currently using 5.45/9.09TBIf I look on "This PC" I am able to see the Storage Space as being about 2/3rds full. Troubleshooting:- I have tried scanning for errors on this drive using Error Checking. "No errors were found"-Tried optimizing volume via Powershell "Optimize-Volume

    Windows Manage Storage Spaces

    Dear Windows Team,

    Are there any list of drives which are supported to use manage storage spaces.

    As I have 10x 5TB WD My Passport Drive all drives shows error while creating for pool like the listed drive doesn't support the pool option.

    Then which drives should I use?

    Any suggestions!!!

    BR
