When going through the wizard and you get to the "new virtual machine" portion. It gives you the option to change the name, set the datastore location and select the network. The host is setup with StarWind vSAN and with that there is the C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1 location that I was told I need to put the VMs in to utilize the 8TB of HA storage. However, when I go to "C:\" it says there is only 323 GB free and will not let me select that drive. I however can see the data drive, that is part of the HA listed as D:\ and it has plenty of storage. Where should I migrate this VM? Do I have to migrate it to the D:\ and then use Failover Manager to move it to the correct datastore location?

Yes, you have to migrate the VM to the D:\ and then use Failover Manager to move it to the correct CSV location at the current moment.
Our R&D team will check how to improve this thing.
