Server 2012 R2 Essentials - Restore Storage Spaces - Sector size mismatch

$

I am attempting to restore my R2 Essentials server storage spaces drive using the server restore process. I have purchased new larger hard drives to replace the existing ones. When the restore begins, it immediately fails with the following error:

For search:

The restore process did not succeed because the sector size of the restore destination volume is different than the sector size of the backup source volume.  This can happen if you change the hard drive, configure a new Storage Spaces, or remove the old Storage Spaces.  Make sure that you restore the backup to a volume that uses the same sector size as the backup source.

Actually, after toying around with it I just restored files instead of the full drive.  Not optimal, but same as a robocopy that I would have ended up doing otherwise.
