Mirrored Storage Space with 3 Physical Drives?
I have 3 physical drives not in use: 1x6TB and 2x3TB. Can I create a fault tolerant 2-way mirror (6TB of usable) with these drives? Documentation seems to say 'no' but I am looking for someone having practical experience with this scenario.

Hello Sean R,

Do you mean that you want to create a two way mirror storage space with 6TB space?

Based on my test, I create three VHD, two 4GB VHD and one 8 GB VHD.
And then try to create a two way mirror storage space. Please take a look at the following screenshot.

The total pool capacity is only 13.7 GB, so I can create a 8GB storage space with fault tolerant.

Best regards,
Fangzhou CHEN
