Four of those drives are USB so when I remotely rebooted my system from vacation they didn't pick up and would register as missing. (I thought, that's fine - the pool is triple duplicated so...read access will just be locked until I return).
I come home to find my pool running out of space...I have 40TB of data triple duplicated - so give or take, I should have 30TB of space available since 40x3=120 out of 152TB.
Would the system, with four disks missing, simply checked the remaining disks and said, well look at all these files that aren't triple duplicated so let's duplicate them a third time on the remaining drives? Otherwise, I can't explain where all the space went. In fact, using TreeFileSize in admin mode, I confirmed only 40.2TB of data but the pool is showing only 8TB free out of 152TB.

Drashna, I have a 152TB pool (35 drives).
