can not create the aggregate

the error: can not create the aggregate because the syncmirrow pool does not cointain sufficient spare disk with a maching disk RPM

I am configuring a new FAS2720 (2set) with ONTAP 9.6
One is a total of 8 x 2 TB of HDD units, and the other is 4 x 960 GB of SSD.

The internal drives were already partitioned with advance disk partitioning with raid-dp in the HDD drives, giving me 2 partitions of 4 disks as root.

I have a problem to create my aggregate for data in my controllers, the 4 SSD disks are free.

how else can I configure my computer, in order to create my aggregates for data

you will need to create 1 data aggr from the SATA and then add the SSD as a Flash Pool/Storage Pool to the SATA aggr.

+1.

With the limited number of drives involved, you're probably looking at an active/passive configuration to maximize the amount of available storage.
