FAQ
Q1: What is Storage Spaces Direct (S2D)?
A1: Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) is a Windows Server feature that allows you to create a high-availability, fault-tolerant storage pool using local disks across multiple servers. It’s ideal for VM storage, file shares, and clustered workloads.
Q2: How many servers/nodes do I need for S2D?
A2: You need a minimum of 2 nodes, but 3-4 nodes are recommended for better redundancy and performance. I can configure both 2-node and multi-node clusters depending on your requirements.
Q3: Which versions of Windows Server are supported?
A3: I work with Windows Server 2016, 2019, and 2022 Datacenter Edition. S2D requires Datacenter edition for full functionality.
Q4: Can this work with Hyper-V or virtual machines?
A4: Yes! I can configure S2D storage to host Hyper-V virtual machines, file servers, or any workload that requires shared storage. This is optional and can be included in the Premium package.
Q5: Can you configure the cluster remotely?
A7: Yes! I offer remote setup via secure connection. I’ll guide you step-by-step or handle the configuration entirely, depending on your preference.
