Hello.
Long story short.
Ran out of space
Bought new disks
Emptied 3 small 120GB SSDs to be replaced with 4x 16TB drives.
I Selected "Duplicate Files Later" for all 3 removing drives.
Some files were duplicated between these 3 drives, not anywhere else.
First disk removes fine.
2nd disk gets removed, but with files remaining on it.
3rd drive gets emptied until it gets to files for which no more duplicates exist.
DrivePool is stuck on emptying.
Tried several things, but had to resort to restarting Windows. (Soft)
After boot, Drivepool takes a while to load, says 3rd disk is missing.
I re-add disk 2 and 3 because they show as not empty. Didn't want to take the risk.
I check the removed drives.
1st is empty
2nd & 3rd have files on them left
None of these files have a duplicate in DrivePool
I have to run disk repair to recover the files as they are no longer indexed.
Recovery does not put them in drivepoolpart folder so they are not automatically being duplicated back.
A user who doesn't understand what's going on might lose all this 'in limbo' data. Because even when manually checking the drives, you don't see the left-over folders and files without doing some kind of recovery first.
Suggestion, even when selecting "Duplicate Files Later", do a check if a duplicate still exists.
