I am using Windows Server 2025 with a storage spaces based SMB share. It is based on a tiered storage spaces in mirror mode with 2xNVMe SSD + 2xHDD.
I learned that there is way to optimize the data so that much more used data is placed on the SSDs. See here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/storage/optimize-volume?view=windowsserver2025-ps
This is the command I try to run:
Optimize-Volume -DriveLetter L -TierOptimize
This gives me the error: Optimize-Volume: The volume optimization operation requested is not supported by the hardware backing the volume. Activity ID: {f80c4bc1-c7c6-0001-3c53-0cf8c6c7db01}
Details from event viewer: An error has occurred during method execution.
Class: MSFT_Volume
Method: Optimize
Error Code: 43022
Error Message: The volume optimization operation requested is not supported by the hardware backing the volume. Activity ID: {f80c4bc1-c7c6-0001-3c53-0cf8c6c7db01}
My expectation is that it runs. What can I do?
