I have two identical M2 drives, both formatted with btrfs. How do I combine them into one bigger drive?
Thank you.

Hi there, some more context information would be helpful regarding what you actually want to achieve with that.

Via LVM you could add both of them into one volume group, and then span a logical volume over the whole volume group, then the filesystem on top would cover both disks.
