Disk removed from server backup, but can't be added to pool


MeSue

Question

WHS2011 - I was using one disk for server backup, but I changed my mind and decided to use a different one. I removed the first disk from server backups and set it up under the second one, then made a successful backup to the new destination disk. But even though I told server backups to stop using the first disk, it is still listed as a backup disk in the DrivePool tab and can't be added to the pool. How can I fix this in order to add this disk to the pool?

I have restarted the server and it didn't change anything. I can't format the drive because it also being used for client computer backups. I wondered if deleting the folder "WindowsImageBackup" on the root of the drive would solve it, but I didn't want to do that without getting some confirmation that it would be safe first.
