    Drivepool and ReFS

    Thanks guys! The changelog of the Beta versions mentions ReFS support - which started me down down this path. I will message Drashna.

    Drivepool and ReFS

    Are you saying you've been using ReFS with Drivepool, and you haven't seen any type of problems or performance hits vs NTFS? Also, I've looked at Storage Spaces on Server 2016, and it seems to be somewhat limiting with how volumes are handled vs Drivepool. Drivepool appears to be much more flexible with available storage space when using different sized disks vs a mirroring configuration in Storage Spaces.

    Drivepool and ReFS

    Not sure if this has been asked before, so forgive the repeat... I've been using Drivepool for years now with NTFS as the filesystem. I'm going to be building a new storage server with Windows Server 2016 for my home, and like to reevaluate how I do things from time to time... I'm curious if there are any advantages to using ReFS as the filesystem for my pooled drives over NTFS. Are Is it a matter of preference, or are there performance pros and cons to consider (disk I/O)? I've heard that ReFS has the ability to recover from data issues (bad blocks), which is why I'm asking the question.
