Is UNMAP implemented yet? I created a deduplicated drive, and now I have many .spspx files. There are hundreds of entries in the log '*** DDDisk_Dispatch_WriteSameAndUnmap: WriteSameUnmap - Not implemented yet!'

Even after using VMotion to move a VM off this storage, the space used by the .spspx files did not go down.

If I go 10tb I get: Specified storage can not be mounted. there is not enough free memory for cachine device meta data. the max allowed is 0

If I go 5tb I get the same error as above.

I get the same error for 1tb as the first error.

Thick works fine.
It checks the free physical memory (RAM). What amount of free RAM do you have on that machine?
Please make a screenshot of the corresponding page of Windows Task Manager, reproduce the issue, zip StarWind logs (default location is C:\Program Files\StarWind Software\StarWind\logs) and send all this info to beta-testing e-mail.
Thank you!

The server has 64gb of ram. only 3gb was in use at the time. So plenty of ram free.
