About spanned volumes
After you convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk, you can create spanned volumes.
Before you create spanned volumes, consider the following:
-
You can create spanned volumes on dynamic disks only.
-
You need at least two dynamic disks to create a spanned volume.
-
You can extend a spanned volume onto a maximum of 32 dynamic disks.
-
You cannot mirror or stripe a spanned volume.
-
Spanned volumes are not fault tolerant.
