bonsowonderdog Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hi friends, 1. Is DrivePool officially released and supported on WSE 2012? If so, which version? 2. Should I upgrade to DrivePool 2.x first, then upgrade to WSE 2012, or the other way around? Thanks heaps !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 DrivePool 2.x supports WS2012E officially. But it is still in beta at the moment. And I'm not sure you can do an in place upgrade with Server 2012 Essentials. (I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'm pretty sure about this). Though, what are you running currently? And worst case here, the pool is "portable". Meaning that you could install to a new HDD, install DrivePool and reconnect the pooled drives and it will read the pool right away.

0 bonsowonderdog Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 Thanks. I'm currently running whs2011. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 yeah there definitely isn't an upgrade path from 2011. you'd basically have to install over it, and move the HDDs over. But once you had DrivePool installed, it will immediately recognize the "old" pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
