To view the available storage in a Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) storage pool, you should use the Windows Admin Center (option D).

The Windows Admin Center is a web-based management tool that allows you to manage servers, clusters, and hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) deployments. It provides a simplified interface to manage Windows Server features and can be used to manage S2D storage pools.

To view the available storage in a S2D storage pool using the Windows Admin Center, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Windows Admin Center in your web browser and log in to the server that hosts the S2D storage pool.

  2. In the left-hand navigation menu, click on 'Storage Spaces Direct'.

  3. Under 'Pools', you should see the list of available storage pools. Select the S2D storage pool that you want to view.

  4. On the 'Overview' tab, you will see information about the selected storage pool, including the available capacity and free space.

  5. You can also click on the 'Volumes' tab to view the volumes that are associated with the selected storage pool.

Note that options A and B (System Configuration and Resource Monitor) are not relevant for viewing available storage in a S2D storage pool. Option C (the Get-StorageFileServer cmdlet) is a PowerShell cmdlet that can be used to get information about a file server that is running the Storage Spaces Direct feature, but it does not provide information about available storage in a storage pool.
