Diagram
A layered stack diagram showing how Storage Spaces abstracts physical disks into a storage pool, then into virtual disks with resiliency, and finally into formatted volumes presented to the operating system.
Storage Pools and Virtual Disks
Storage Pools combine multiple physical drives of different sizes and types into a single virtual pool of storage. From this pool, you can create virtual disks which are known as Storage Spaces to present to the operating system. This setup separates physical hardware from the logical volumes that your applications actually write data to. In hybrid designs, Storage Spaces Direct extends this concept across multiple servers by using local drives to create highly available shared storage.
