    I have 2* 500MB drives in my WHS with Power Pack 2 installed. The problem is Disk 0 (system) is 14% full whilst Disk 1 is 78% full is this normal?

    I had to perform server recovery on this machine a month ago, it seemed to run flawlessly and I got all my data back, could this have anything to do with it or is this situation completely normal?

    Thanks

    This is normal.
    Backups are not duplicated, shared folders are only, if duplication is selected for them.
    WHS tends to keep data belonging together on one disk. This also simplifies manual recovery, if ever needed.
