Yes i finally decided to follow the gui way but i faced an issue. I added one SSD and ask Drivepool to put files i wanted only one one HDD and one SSD. It was nearly perfect, it correctly put thing on those drives like a RAID1, but it lets me the remaining HDD with an incomplete state. On the Drivepool graph the bar was grey for this drive, and the task to remove. It has copied everything on the new ssd but it doesn't have remove few hundred of gigas on it. So i asked drivepool to remove the remaining drive from the pool, and here it was my mistake. I did it remotely and it was a mistake. The file system seams to be stuck. Drivepool put in read only mode all the pool. I wasn't able to stop the "suppress drive task" from him nor able to do anything on the drives. I had to wait to come back home from work to reboot the server. The pool was always in degraded mode but i was able to easily remove the stuck in suppression mode drive from it, because i pulled it away before reboot Then it remeasured the pool, check duplication and ask me to re apply the balance. I did it and the pool went green. So it's ok. I'm no in the process of adding the second SSD. Scanner is checking it. Then i will add it to the pool, ask Drivepool to put files on the hdd and the two ssd, then i'll ask him to remove the hdd. And it should be ok, i hope

Hi, I plan to replace two of my pool disks with SSD. HDD are in good condition. My pool balance is optimized and everything runs well; I thought of stopping the pool and make a copy of the hidden drivepool folder on the two hdd to the ssd to make the change fastly. Is it possible ? Regards

Very interesting Hilton What are you using to power on your two DS380 without motherboard ? Regards
