Extensible Storage
This screen shows the storage locations used by the DS-System. Once you have set the Fill Levels and defined the Storage Groups, you may add Storage Locations. The DS-System will automatically balance its data across the available space for each storage location in the same Storage Group.
By default, Windows DS-System does not allow adding multiple storage locations on the same file system. However, you can configure this option in the DS-System Advanced Configuration screen with the 'MultiStorage' parameter. (See "DS-System Advanced Configuration".)
1. Setup menu > Storage > Extensible Storage.
