Doesn’t windows have storage spaces or something like that? I’m not familiar with windows for any kind of server stuff but I remember reading some things.

It does but it’s not great from what I’ve read for jbod setups. Drivebender has been awesome for over a decade for me. It balances everything and even lets me keep local backups, so if one drive dies it’s got a copy on another drive.

  Do you want JBOD or a RAID? Cause dealing with disk failure is a feature of RAID

    I don’t really need speed. RAID is for people who like to spend money on same size/speed drives

    Most RAID levels are for redundancy, not speed and software RAID doesn’t need drives of the same size.
