What would you use to pool multiple drives in Windows while maintaining good drive speed for both read and write (zerobytes.monster)

As title, I am currently using windows storage spaces, I am about to add a 3rd 18tb drive. My current situation, is my write speed with my two drives under my storage pool, is not getting the bandwidth it should have, i am getting read/write speeds of a single drive, not both.

It could be that I formatted one of the drives in the pool incorrectly, if that is a possible, and would limit my read/write speeds, could someone help me find out?

I really don't want to rebuild, I have about 20tb of data, it would be nice to retain 10tb of it, so maybe i could install the 3rd drive, move over 10tb worth of data from my pool, delete the pool, format the drives correctly, add the two drives back, copy the 10tb of data over. Then add the new drive to the pool?
