Just finished changing over a WHS v1 to WSE 2012, purchased drive pool and am getting ready to add some drives to the pool before copying over data.
My server is in a Norco 4220 case (20 bays), I am not sure of final placement for the drives just yet - the disc management add in helped me keep track of which drives were in which location and I have not decided how to best "label" the drives so that if one fails I can find it in the case.
Anyways if I start a new pool and add some drives, what happens if I later re-locate that drive to a different location in the case? Will drivepool automatically know which drive this is and everything will keep chugging along or will that create problems?
