If enough new or spare drives exist on different nodes based on your Data Replication
Count (2x or 3x), new peer sets are formed as long as the spare count is satisfied.

If there are not enough drives or they are not on different nodes, the drives are used to
create additional hot spares.
After incorporation, the drives are displayed normally as peer sets or hot spares on the
Disks
page.
