@trurl thanks, I guess months ago when I setup disk3 I guess I excluded it from the global settings so nothing would get put on it. I removed the excluded and started up the array and it looks like my files are showing up in the share again and say they are on disk3. Glad that was a simple fix.

Over the weekend I decided to move one of my disks to the xfs filesystem. I have a total of 5 disks (3 data disks, 1 parity, 1 cache). Two of those 3 data disks were is RFS format(disk1, disk2) and 1 was in the XFS format (disk3). Disk3 (XFS) has been sitting empty in my array for several months waiting to be used to convert my RFS disks. So I moved disk1 into disk3 and it seems to have worked. The problem I am running into is that my user shares are not showing the files after the move. For example if I open up Movies share in the unraid GUI I shows the files that were on disk2 are still there. But all the files that were on disk1 are missing and there is no mention of disk3. I know the files exist because if I use the command line to view files direct on disk3 they are there. I am not sure what to do next. Below are the steps I followed. 1. Installed new empty drive (disk3(XFS) months ago) 2. Turned off all dockers, turned off mover and parity checker/builder thing 3. Opened up screen session 4. Started copy using rsync (Took ~20 hours total - No errors that I know of) rsync -av --progress /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disk3/ (~15 hours) rsync -avc --progress --remove-source-files /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disk3/ (~5 hours) 5. Checked a handful of files on disk3 (Seemed good). Disk1 was left with empty folders (Just rsync) 6. Checked unraid main page GUI. Disk1 showed empty (bascially (33mb - folders)). Disk3 showed about the size that disk1 was before copy (~2.5TB) 7. Turned off array 8. Changed filesystem on Disk1 to XFS 9. Started array and disk1 showed unformatted. So I formatted it. (Disk1 was the only one the showed) 10. After the format I looked at the main page GUI. I had two disks XFS now (Disk1 - empty, Disk3 - ~2.5TB) 11. I looked in the different shares that use to be on disk1 and they still exist but the files that were in disk1 were missing 12. Logged in command line and disk3 still has the files even though they are missing from the shares. Will this fix itself or do I need to do something to let the share know of the move? Right now my array is in the off state. I don't want unraid wiping disk3 for some odd reason because it looks like it still has all the files. I am running unraid version 6.1.7
