Problem

4K native disks are supported from Windows 8 and Windows 2012 onward. These operating systems also support storage pools and storage spaces. Microsoft recommends using storage spaces over dynamic disks, as spaces also provide resiliency and mirroring. The following link provides information about dynamic disks that are deprecated:
