I have a 4-bay drive enclosure containing 4 drives, and I added all 4 to a new storage pool. So far, so good. The pool is currently duplicating. Windows Explorer shows the 4 member drives and the new DrivePool drive. Is there any problem with going into Disk Management and removing the drive letters from all of the member drives? This way, the "This PC" view would be clean and it would force me to just leave the member drives alone, and focus on the pooled drive.
Intuitively, it seems that DrivePool doesn't care about the drive letter, because it's smart enough to identify each drive at a lower lever. Normally, I would just remove the drive letters and see what happens, but I'm dealing with a couple terabytes of data, and I'm a bit paranoid about doing anything that could mess things up.
