I have 2 500GB drives with 2 volumes. One Two-way mirror and one simple. I have been creating and deleting files on the Two-way mirror but it seems that even though the files have been deleted the space is not freed back to storage spaces.
I am currently using about 200GBs but Storage Spaces reports I am using 469GBs. The simple volume seems to be accurate although it gets less use so it is harder to tell. My Computer, Disk Management, and Disk part all agree there should be about
200GBs used. According to the document "Understand and Troubleshoot Storage Spaces in Windows Server 8" it says "This means just-in-time allocation and releasing of capacity once a given space is no longer using it". I know
that for servers but I assume the desktop version should behave the same way.
I am nearing max capacity and I would like to figure out what is causing this before I run out of space. Thanks
