The New-Cluster cmdlet creates a cluster. After creating the cluster, use the Enable-ClusterStorageSpacesDirect PowerShell cmdlet, which will put the storage system into the Storage Spaces Direct mode and do the following automatically:
Create a pool: Creates a single large pool that has a name like "S2D on Cluster1".

One is called "Capacity" and the other called "Performance". The cmdlet analyzes the devices and configures each tier with the mix of device types and resiliency. The use of the New-Volume cmdlet recommended to create volumes for Storage Spaces Direct. It provides the fastest and most straightforward experience.
