I've setup DrivePool, added 4 drives to it. I mapped each individual drive to an empty NTFS folder so I can still access the drives standalone. Now I added a few initial folders to it, for example "steam".
Everything is working as it should: I see the new folders in Explorer in the pooled drive, I see it in DrivePool UI (under Balancing / File Placement).
But what I don't understand is why I don't see these folders when accessing the standalone drive folders. See below the screenshot of the drive folder trees. It should be under the "ssd_2tb" folder. But it's not there:
I don't need to see it on the individual drives generally, but I do want to ensure it's working as it should and I understand it before is start putting all my data in the pool.
