It's A Digital Disease!

I have a storage space with two 10TB drives. Issues are common if there is a power outage or something, the storage space will completely disappear until i restart it a few times... it's scary.

I have ~4TB of files in this space and I don't want to lose them. I also don't have a spare 4TB drive I could use to transfer all of the files over.

Is there a way to turn these back into regular drives? I'd rather just use one and keep the other as a 'manual' backup that is in real-time sync.

I am thinking since i'm using less than half the space, i could theoretically remove one of the drives from the space, transfer the files, then delete the space... but i don't see the options to do that, maybe spaces require at least two drives...
