By default, when a drive is added to a pool, any existing files and folder are not visible via the pool. The reason being is that Drive Bender creates a new mount point folder outside of the existing files and folders (click here for more info on a drives structure).
To manually merge these files/folders, assign a drive letter to the drive that was just added, and then move the existing files/folders to the mount folder on the same drive (only recommended if this is the only drive in the pool), or move the existing files/folders directly to the new pooled drive.
For example, the following shows a drive that has been added to the pool, however, it also contains existing folders (My Files1 and My Files2).
If the pool contains only a single drive, it is safe to move the files/folders directly to the folder "{7B6BCB3C-B85A-4585-BA10-8DB6B99E009E}" (this is the mount point folder, the name of this folder on your machine will be different). if there is more that one drive in the pool, move the files/folder directly to the new pooled drive. For example, cut the files from drive X (X being the drive that is part of the pool, and you have mapped a drive letter too), and paste them directly into the pool.
