A storage pool is
a collection of storage volume
What does create a storage pool do?
You can use
Storage Spaces to group two or more drives together
in a storage pool and then use capacity from that pool to create virtual drives called storage spaces. These storage spaces typically store two copies of your data so if one of your drives fails, you still have an intact copy of your data.
How does pool storage work?

What is difference between volume and storage pool?
A pool is similar to
a volume group
, with the following differences. The data in a pool is stored randomly on all drives in the pool, unlike data in a volume group, which is stored on the same set of drives. A pool has less performance degradation when a drive fails, and takes less time to reconstruct.
What are the benefits of using storage pools?
The benefits to using storage pools are
keeping more data for your company
, ca cost-efficient way to keep data protected, and your files safe. You are comparing the hardware required for two-way mirroring and three-way mirroring.
How do I get rid of storage pool?
- Connect your new drive to the computer.
- Open the Settings app.
- Go to System -> Storage.
- On the right, click on the link Manage Storage Spaces.
- In the next dialog, click on the button Change settings and confirm the UAC prompt.
- If you have a Storage Space in the Storage Pool, delete it.
Why is my storage space running out?
Android devices that use external storage (SD cards, basically) often have
much less usable storage than
is reported. That’s because many system resources and some apps must be installed on the device’s built-in core storage, not on a removable storage medium.
What is a simple storage space?
Storage Spaces provides you with four Resiliency Types: Simple (no resiliency)
writes one copy of your data and doesn’t protect you from drive failures
. A simple storage space requires at least two drives. Two-Way Mirror writes two copies of you data, helping to protect you from a single drive failure.
What is the difference between RAID and storage pools?
Storage pools similarly
increase the capacity and performance of storage
, but are easier to configure and manage than RAID groups. RAID groups have traditionally been regarded as offering better and more predictable performance than storage pools.
What is a volume in storage?
A volume is
a storage device
, such as a fixed disk, floppy disk, or CD-ROM, that is formatted to store directories and files. A large volume can be divided into more than one logical volume, also called a partition.
Should I use thick or thin volume?
Thick volumes are recommended
if you are creating multiple volumes but need to guarantee the space for a particular volume. The performance of a thick volume may also be slightly better than a thin volume in some situations.
What is the difference between storage pool and volume Synology?
After a storage pool has been created,
you can create one or multiple volumes on it
. A volume is a unit of data storage and may be expanded if the associated storage pool contains allocatable space. At least one volume must be created before you can start storing data on your Synology NAS.
What is Lun and pool?
The pools and volume groups are
the top-level units of storage in a storage array
: they divide the capacity of drives into manageable divisions. Within these logical divisions are the individual volumes or LUNs where data is stored. The following figure illustrates this concept. View full size graphic. 1 Host LUNs.
What is Windows storage space explain its benefits?
Windows 8’s new feature called Storage Spaces has three benefits:
bringing the safety of RAID to the desktop, creating an expanding space to store files
, and providing these features at lower cost than other hardware options.
What is a LUN in storage?
In computer storage, a
logical unit number
, or LUN, is a number used to identify a logical unit, which is a device addressed by the SCSI protocol or by Storage Area Network protocols that encapsulate SCSI, such as Fibre Channel or iSCSI.
