Duplication warnings for every single file in the pool

[TareNeko]

This is driving me crazy...  My setup has 2 external drives, 8TB and 10TB.  I have 4.5TB of data which is duplicated in both drives.  These drives are only used with DrivePool, meaning there is no other data in these drives.  So each drive has 4.5TB of data.

I keep getting Duplication Warnings, where it says "there were problems checking, duplicating, or cleaning up one or more files on the pool".  When I look at the log file, it says:

"Warning: 0 : [FileDuplication] Cannot find any suitable pool part destinations to duplicate \\?\GLOBALROOT\....."

I checked the service log file and this warning is for every single file.  When I manually check the drives in the pool, each drive has the files... so files are duplicated.  To be safe, I reinstalled the DrivePool, re-created the pool, and I'm using default settings.  You can see the pool stats in the attached screenshot.  But I am still getting this warning.

I tried settings -> troubleshooting -> recheck duplication, warning doesn't go away.

I'm also confused about the 1.82TB space marked as "unusable for duplication".  Is it related to this problem? Again, I'm using default settings.

Thank you!

Any files that took up the last 2TB (1.82TB after formatting) of the 10TB drive couldn't be duplicated onto the 8TB drive because the latter wouldn't have enough space.

I did some searching in the forum and long story short, when I went to Manage Pool-File Protection-Folder Duplication, I saw that some folders had x3 duplication (this was an old setting I used where some folders are backed up to a cloud drive).

I still have the "unusable for duplication 1.82TB" note, which I don't understand, but otherwise, m problem seemed to be resolved so far.
