Reference / correct answer:

Enable-ClusterS2D

New-Cluster

New-Volume

Storage Spaces Direct uses industry-standard servers with local-attached drives to create highly available, highly scalable software-defined storage at a fraction of the cost of traditional SAN or NAS arrays.

The New-Cluster cmdlet creates a cluster. After creating the cluster, use the Enable-ClusterStorageSpacesDirect PowerShell cmdlet, which will put the storage system into the Storage Spaces Direct mode and do the following automatically:

Create a pool: Creates a single large pool that has a name like "S2D on Cluster1".

Configures the Storage Spaces Direct caches: If there is more than one media (drive) type available for Storage Spaces Direct use, it enables the fastest as cache devices (read and write in most cases)

Tiers: Creates two tiers as default tiers. One is called "Capacity" and the other called "Performance". The cmdlet analyzes the devices and configures each tier with the mix of device types and resiliency.

The use of the New-Volume cmdlet recommended to create volumes for Storage Spaces Direct. It provides the fastest and most straightforward experience.
