July 8, 20232 yr Is it possible under the current implementation of unRAID to create one pool with two VDEV's? I have 22x8TB drives and 13x5TB drives, I want to create a vdev of each in RAIDZ2, then I want to add them to one pool. The goal is to have a shared that utilizes the space on the singe pool made up of both vdevs. Right not, at least through the gui, it appears I can only create two pools. one utilizing the 8TB drives and one utilizing the 5TB drives and this limits me to to a share using either the 8TB drives or 5TB drives, when I want a share to utilize both.
