About this tag
Storage Spaces is a built-in Windows feature that pools physical drives into virtual storage with options like two-way mirroring for data redundancy. Recent discussions focus on elevation-of-privilege vulnerabilities in the Storage Spaces Controller, including CVE-2026-35415, CVE-2026-32076, and CVE-2026-27907, which Microsoft has confirmed and patched. These local EoP flaws require an attacker to already have a foothold, making them critical for defenders to patch promptly. Other topics include booting Windows Server from ReFS volumes, merging drives in Windows 11 using Storage Spaces or Disk Management, and step-by-step guides for setting up mirrored Storage Spaces on Windows 10/11 to protect data against drive failure.

Crimson Desert’s PC footprint is now clearly one of the first practical hurdles players will face at launch: Pearl Abyss’ storefront and publisher materials list a required 135 GB of free storage on Windows, while community reports and a circulating Reddit screenshot point to a roughly 121 GB...
Fourteen years after Microsoft first shipped the Resilient File System (ReFS) with Windows Server 2012, the long-standing barrier that kept ReFS off system/boot volumes has finally been removed: Windows Server now supports booting from ReFS volumes. This change completes a slow, cautious...
If you’ve ever stared at two small drives in File Explorer and wished they were a single, larger disk, Windows 11 gives you a handful of built‑in ways to make that happen — but the easiest trick (delete one partition, extend the other) has important limits and risks. Back up first, understand...
