Quick question about duplication

Varroa

Hi Guys, I having been having some problems with my WHS client backups and as a result I made a second drive pool just for my backups. This pool resides on 2 WD Red 2 TB drives. I set up the pool and migrated my backups folder to the new pooled drive but the drive says that the free space is unavailable for duplication. How do I enable duplication on this second pooled drive? Duplication is working on my first pooled drive so am I missing something?

Just to make sure, both drives are in that pool? and both are the same size?

Varroa

Correct, both WD 2 TB RED drives (pool size 3.6 TBish). Today it said something along the lines of 600GB used, 1.2 TB unavailable for duplication which makes no sense.

sounds like it's not duplicating properly, hence the "unavailable" message.  

Have you tried manually balancing?

Also, these drives are *only* in this second pool, correct? And you've verified the balancing options on this second pool, right?

If none of this helps, then I'd recommend following this:
