== What is Greyhole ==
[http://www.greyhole.net/ Greyhole] is Amahi's [[Storage pooling]] technologyof choice. Storage Pooling combines the space of multiple disk drives and makes them look as if they were all part of a single pool of disk space.Greyhole was designed independently of Amahi, however, with feedback and great work, the Greyhole team made it suitable for integration with Amahi. 
Specifically, Greyhole:
* Combines the space from multiple drives into a single volume
* Creates multiple copies of files in admin-specified shares
<br />
Recommend you consult [https://github.com/gboudreau/Greyhole/wiki/WhatNotToPutInGreyholeShares what not to put in Greyhole shares] as a precaution when determining which shares to select.  You can add additional drives to your hda HDA and prepare them for use in Greyhole by following using [[Adding_a_second_hard_drive_to_your_HDA|adding a second hard drive to your HDA]] guidance or use the Amahi [https://www.amahi.org/apps/disk-wizard Disk Wizard] application for (Amahi 7.
