I’m lost. See screenshots. T-262 originally with 2 bays of 4T each. I ran out of room and did a replace one drive at a time with (2) 8T ea. I still get the same out of storage warning from the old disk. I’m just not seeing how to make use of what is now almost double the space.
You likely haven’t expanded the capacity after replacing the drives..
Check the last steps here (click on “expand capacity”):

The drives are physically larger but the storage pools are the same size.
Same small fish, now in a larger pond.
You need to allow the fish to grow…
Really nice analogy. Thanks again. I expected the storage space to magically expand. There was a warning window going through the process that made me pause because of the wording. After I exhausted every other option, I went back and just said, “OK”, I’ll take my lumps. My pool went to capacity.
