- Direct conversion from the Basic service tier to Hyperscale isn't supported. To perform this conversion, first change the database to any service tier other than Basic (for example, General Purpose), and then proceed with the conversion to Hyperscale.

- Direct coversion from a zone redundant elastic pool to a non-zone redundant Hyperscale pool is not supported. To perform this conversion, first convert the pool to standalone bu choosing an offering such as Business Critical. Then remove zone redundancy and changet the service tier to Hyperscale. At that point, the database can be added to an existing, non-zone redundant Hyperscale pool or one could be created and the database added.

I can't find a way to edit again, but it should be "conversion", not "coversion"

Also, it should be "by", not "bu" and "changet" to "change".

Reworded.

Clarified the process for converting a database from a zone-redundant elastic pool to a non-zone-redundant Hyperscale pool, specifying the need to remove the database from the pool and disable zone redundancy before conversion.
