Hi, I need to change out a drive from 3TB to 4TB The new drive is a Seagate STV000VN000. I am going to use the PreClear GUI, can someone tell me what settings I need to use on the Preclear screen? Also, has anything changed in V6 to the process of swapping a data drive for a bigger data drive? i.e. Stop the array. Power down the unit. Replace smaller disk with new bigger disk. Power up the unit. Start the array. When you start the array, the system will reconstruct the contents of the original smaller disk onto the new disk.

Can I shift a season to another disk manually? i.e. got to Disk 1 cut and paste to disk 3? Does this still work...?

Yes, The is a part season.... So do I change the level split, and change the disk to a bigger one?

it is set to 0kb, but is that going to solve the issue? i,e. the season/episodes still wont fit due to level of split?

Hi, I run UnRAID 6.0.1 I have a problem as I have run out of space on one disk and the other 3 disks are low as well Disk Number Free Space disk1 23.0 GB disk2 119 MB disk3 20.9 GB disk4 16.8 GB I tried copying a new season of a TV show to my unraid server and it failed due to lack of space. I have the following setup... My File Structure Movies --> Jaws --> Movie File --> Jaws2 --> Movie File --> King Kong --> Movie File TV --> Lost --> Season 1 --> Episodes --> Season 2 --> Episodes --> Season 3 --> Episodes TV --> The Big Bang Theory --> Season 1 --> Episodes --> Season 2 --> Episodes --> Season 3 --> Episodes My Shares Movies Split at Level 1 - So Movies is recreated on each disk, but each individual movie folder is on one disk only. TV Split Level 2 - So TV and TV Show folders are created on each disk, each season is on one disk only. Solutions Please? Do I just change the split level of TV so individual episodes can be split on to seperate disk? Do I change out the size of the disks? Do I add more disks? Not sure if this will fix my issue, as the split level currently set requires the season to be on the same disk. I look forward to any suggestions to solving my issue, it must be a common issue Thanks

Hi, Can I run the new permissions tool when the parity sync is still running? Cheers

Can I run the new permissions tool when the parity sync is still running?

So All I need to do to be safe is.... Copy the contents of the USB to a safe place, and take a screen shot of the array? like below?

Hi, I am using version 5.0-rc15a. Can someone just confirm that I have this correct? I can do a 'upgrade install'? Is this best? or should I be doing a clean install? Is it advised to use the 6.01 Upgrade Plugin for V5? Will this work with my version? I have these plugins.. Do I need to remove these before upgrading? if so how?

Hi, What are the rules... Can I Parity-Sync array and Pre Clear another drive and Use Files from shares at the same time?

Ok, I will put it another way... I now am going to use the drive as a parity drive. Having no partition, is not a problem for any drive as pre_clear will do everything it needs. And "Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary" does not matter?

And it would still be ok if I use the drive as Parity? (which I am having to do now)

Hi, I have just got a new 4TB WD Red I am swapping this to be my cache drive. When i go to preclear it, I get a line that says that the drive does not have a partition table. I took the drive out and attached it to my other pc, made it GPT I then go to preclear and i get "Partition 1 does not start on physical sector boundary." is this ok? Did I need to worry about creating a partition table?
