Here is how CoveCube describes this application:

  • Combine all your hard drives into one big storage pool (except the system drive with the OS).
  • Add and remove drives from the pool at any time without re-partitioning or manually moving folders.
  • Create duplicated folders on the storage drive pool that are protected against single drive failure. If a drive fails on which a duplicated file was stored, the contents of that file will remain readable even without the drive.
  • All your data is stored in standard NTFS files. You can always access your files even if the Windows Home Server completely crashes or this add-in can’t be used.

This beta version’s change log:

  • [D] Key areas of virtual disks can be written to by the OS in order to allow it to update virtual on-disk structures, for example to resolve signature collisions.
  • [D] New pools will be GPT disks (not MBR) in order to avoid possibility of signature collisions. Legacy pool will continue to be MBR disk.
  • Extended the UI to support multiple pools (too many changes to list individually).
  • Updated the service to support multiple pools (too many changes to list individually).
  • [D] Added multiple pool support (too many changes to list individually).
