To upgrade my old blu-ray storage disks, I created a new 3 disk, 3 column Simple pool using the process described here:
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/storage-spaces-trying-to-create-a-raid-0-with/c440086c-4bb6-410d-9e92-fd98ce6626cc
It seems to have worked correctly and it is reporting 3 columns, vs 1 column with previous 4 disc Simply Storage Space. However, it shows 100% pool usage in Storage Spaces UI for this pool vs. the actual number in the 1 column pool which was set up via the UI (I noticed it is the same in the linked Answers process). Windows Explorer correctly shows the data and space remaining on the pooled drive letter.
Question:
1. Are the steps in the linked "answers" post accurate?
2. Assume they are, is there a way to get Storage Spaces to report space usage correctly?
3. If there isn't, is there anything that I might need to be concerned about given that is working and Explorer reports usage correctly?
