Hi&nbsp;tonnybabs,&nbsp;You can refer to the official Microsoft documentation on how to create failover clusters:&nbsp;Create a failover clusterhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/failover-clustering/create-failover-clusterHere's a Microsoft blog post on how to add disk to a cluster:&nbsp;Adding Disk to Clusterhttps://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Failover-Clustering/Adding-Disk-to-Cluster/ba-p/371257&nbsp;If you're planning to use Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs), you can refer to the following documentation:Use Cluster Shared Volumes in a failover clusterhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/failover-clustering/failover-cluster-csvs#add-a-disk-to-csv-on-a-failover-cluster&nbsp;&nbsp;Hope this helps!&nbsp;Best regards,Leon
