I'm trying to understand how "smart" Windows Storages Spaces is when it comes to using disks with different capacities.
Example:
- I create a Storage Pool using a 6TB physical disk and a 10TB physical disk .
- Then I create a 6TB Mirrored Storage Space and fill it to capacity with data.
- I create a 4TB Simple Storage Space on that same Storage Pool.
Will I:
- Be able to store 4TB of data on that Simple Storage Space (which in turn must be storing the data physically on the 10TB disk), or
- Be unable to store anything on the 4TB
If it isn't smart enough to automatically use all the space on the 10TB disk, is there special setting or PowerShell way to force it to put the Simple Storage Space on the 10TB disk?
Thanks!
