  1. To make sure I understand, I can just add my current drive pool to StableBit, and will that let me push the capped capacity I'm stuck at to the actual capacity, or will I still be stuck at the capped 63 TB capacity because it is a Windows-based storage pool?
  2. Yeah, I meant the Windows Storage Spaces drive pool. I currently have 3x 20 TB and 1x 18 TB allocated to the drive pool as storage space and only using 32 TB at the moment. I don't have any spare drives of capacity to move files between; the remaining drives are NVMe drives ranging between 1 and 4 TB with one of them as the system drive. Due to the space I have, I could remove one drive at a time to recreate the pool in Stablebit and transfer files overnight. Plex is rather fussy about the drive letters if I don't go in manually into the registry to change the location. But if I do the move overnight (or, well, 24 hours) on a day I don't need it, that wouldn't be a huge hit. Backblaze hasn't changed on restoration process if a drive fails.
  3. Hi, Before I make a purchase of StableBit's DrivePool, I have a couple of questions that on how to migrate from the Windows Drive Pool to StableBit's DrivePool since I hit the lovely 63 TB limit based on the bytes per inode. I currently have four drives hooked up to the drive pool. What's going to be the best way to do this migration without breaking apart the Windows drive pool while maintaining at the very least read access to the files (the drives are my Plex Media Server). Write access would be nice since I also record gameplay and streams to the same drive, but that's not a necessary thing I need. The drive pool is set up as just a single giant disk JBOD setup since I use BackBlaze to keep all my data backed up. That leads me to question 2. Will BackBlaze play nicely with StableBit? Thanks in advance. Ellia
