Dear all,

originally I setup TrueNAS with 5 x 2 TB HDD and only created one Pool.
I then upgraded to 5 x 6 TB HDDs (just changed the last disk today).

Is there any way to split / resize the actual pool, so that as a result I will have additional pools?

Thinking about at least 3-4 pools: system / personal / media / (servers)

Best regards,
MacGyver

Assuming you're using RAIDZn (which seems likely from your description), no, not without destroying the pool.

That said... Why would you want to do that?
