  1. Thanks Christopher yes it still worked but it gave me an extra folders in the server folder ( 3 I think a client backup one and 2 with numbers as there name) on the client so I thought I had did it wrong and panicked so did a clean install again. But I now know for the future. 

    Thanks 

  2. Thanks got there in the end by a different route as I couldn't find the options pane on the right. so I RDP into the server and went into file explorer and brought up the drives then into c:, then into the server folders and cut the folders and pasted them into the pool drive servers folder which replaced the ones in there. then in the dashboard the folder option reported missing folders so I clicked renew and it automatically filled the path as going to the pool drive rather than c:, so you were right on renewing it had defaulted to the c: drive.

    Thanks

    So my guess is that with the clean install, the Dashboard has the standard shared folders back on the C:\ drive again. I think that if you move these to the Pool, then all of a sudden these will be fine again. Try it with one folder that you backed up somehow first (because although it is unlikely, I am not 100% sure moving a shared folder will not overwrite at the target location).

    Also, you may want to reset NTFS permissions: http://wiki.covecube.com/StableBit_DrivePool_Q5510455

    Hi could you tell me how to do the first part of this, is it from the server desktop and how to do it ?

    Thanks

  4. Hi I deactivated drivepool and then did a clean install of whs 2011 and set up drivepool again and activated it. Now going into the network/server folder on the client with the 5 sub folders (music,pictures,documents,video and recorded tv ) the folders are empty, in the server folders in the dash board these are all empty and the drives in my computer are also empty but the drive pool shows all the files,any help on this ?

    Thanks

  5. Hi I had the same problem and after a search on here it was recommended that you go into Drivepool settings and change duplication settings and just let the program rebalance and it removes files from the drive and when empty run remove disk and it worked for me, sorry can5 find the post now

  6. Hi in the past I just added my drives to the pool, but they were only old drives that were being reused from my htpc, now getting ready to add a 4Tb red and wondered if you all test new drives before adding and what to use for it ?

     

    Thanks
