Hello, After finding I had Mixed Capacity VDEVS I followed some diagnostic steps to see what was wrong with my 1 pool of 10TB drives, and I came upon this link:

I have worries about losing the data on this pool, and do not want to proceed further as I am currently experiencing no problems other than a warning message, but I do not want my pool to be problematic in the future because I did not address my situation.

partx -s /dev/sda & /dev/sdc:

Hey @UltraPhysicsNAS

An upcoming release of SCALE - hopefully 23.10.2 - should suppress this alert for small mismatches of <2GB, and yours looks as if it's only about 1MB.

You shouldn't have any issues in normal operation, but if you have to replace a disk you might have issues if you converted the mirror to a single-disk stripe, as it would "expand to fill" the 1MB-larger partition, and you wouldn't be able to re-mirror it with the same hardware.

Are both of the two disks sda and sdc an identical model?
