I setup Storage Spaces in Win10 with 5 drives only to discover later about the 4k cluster limit default setting. I was going to add new drives and create a new pool and then I found the 63TB limit within Storage Spaces. I downloaded a copy of DrivePool and install it last night and I am copying all my date from the original SS pool. I formatted my drives as ReFS with 64k cluster size. I see that the pool is labeled as ReFS. I found an article here in the forums about ReFS but it was written in 2017. It suggested that metadata tracking is all that is on by default and it said to run the following command.
Set-FileIntegrity H:\ -Enable $True
Should I be doing this for the drive letters of the physical drive letters (or mount points) or should I be doing this for the drive letter of the pool or both?
Does the Scanner now support ReFS? Is support for ReFS still limited across the platform like it was in 2017 or are there new details I should be aware of? I checked the manual for DrivePool but didn't find much.
