    Storage Spaces Dual Parity Pool says that it needs to formatted


    Today, I went to access my storage pool and it told me that I need to format it. It was working perfectly fine a few days ago. If you run chkdsk in Command Prompt, it shows that it is NTFS, if you look in Storage Spaces settings it shows that it is all online and healthy with no disk trouble, but if you look at Disk Management, it shows that it is RAW. According to Storage Spaces, I have almost 80TB of data with almost 100TB capacity. It would really suck if I had to format this pool. And I don't understand how this happened. I have a Synology Backup with about 40TB of data, but I'd like

    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

    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:
    Windows 10's May 2020 Update borks pooled Storage Spaces | PCWorld

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