Storage Spaces will not remove a retired drive.

I have a 60TB Parity Storage Space on my home server, 15TB of 35TB available.  Just had two drives fail.  A 2TB and 1TB each only 10% used.  No biggie I thought, might lose a few video files.

Both failed to remove giving me the "drive could not be removed because all the data could not be reallocated, add an additional drive and reattempt"

I have 15TB free space but I added a couple drives anyway.  Still cannot remove either drive.  I tried removing in PS but get refused because the drive is "in use"

I had 2 drives fail once before and had no problem removing them from the pool.

There has to be a simple fix for this..  Any ideas?

Thanks
