Create a Mirroring for existing volume(say F: drive)

Question

Create a Mirroring for existing volume(say F: drive) using powershell storagespace and after completion of mirroring remove the initial disk that was used by F drive(i.e remove mirroring)

I have tried with diskpart and Disk Management Tool, these are interactive tools. i wanted to do it with simple commands in powershell

Why Storagespaces.
If we create using storagepool and mirroring is present in virtualdisk, then at any point of time i can do expansion of the respective disk, so in turn it will increase the size of the drive.

Hello there,

To reestablish mirroring, you must get both drives online and then resynchronize the mirror, but you should rebuild the set using disks with the same partition style-either MBR or GPT. The corrective action you take depends on the drive status.

Note: When mirroring boot volumes, Windows requires you to use the same partition style. With data volumes, you can mirror between GPT and MBR.
