The server has a single 70tb raid 6 array on a Perc H710. This is approaching capacity. I’m going to add another controller and a DAS with 60tb of raid 6 storage. There is no way to simply ‘merge’ these into a single drive letter or path.
I’m not sure why backup location can’t be specified per client or have multiple locations.
You can use storage pool on WS to spread a volume over multiple disks. I don’t have a ready example to share, so you need to google it, but it can be done.

What about creating new volume as a dynamic in the new storage pool, moving over current backup directory there and than adding old storage to the new pool? Would that work?
Am sure you can set a location on a per client basis, go Settings > Client (select client) > tick “Separate settings for this client” > and somewhere in there is a bit you can specify a different storage location…it might not show in a mobile browser, so I couldn’t find it when typing this up…
