Tv Shows are at /mnt/user/TV/Shows/ Movies are at /mnt/user/Movies/All/ I'm only really concerned about my Tv Shows Plex docker shows TV shows listed at /mnt/user/TV/Shows/

Exactly what I did. I have a PC I mainly deal with unraid on and I have a folder sitting burried in everything a folder called FlashBackup and every once in a while I'll update it just incase. I've had to do the OH'Crap recovery a couple times luckily having the files handy. Now that I'm deploying a backup server I'll have a copy of each others Flash Drive stored on each other just in case as well.

What until you look through all the Community Apps. Click Click install and your off and running. Just incase you don't have it installed.

I personally use the Icy Dock Black Vortex cages. Mine do not have the back plane on them so I have to connect the cables manually, but I also swapped out the front fans with some 120mm Nactua's. They cool very effectively.

Any of these shares set to Cache Only? That for sure will not let anything move.

Just take your time and always feel free to ask for others opinions. You got this!!!!

Also very important. Do not move files via /shares to /disks or /disks to /shares When I did mine I copied files from /disk to /disk If you mix /shares and /disks you might end up in some kind of loop or cause corruption. I think I did mine a long time ago using rsync and Unbalance plugin which took a lot of the guess work out of it. Made me feel really lazy. Lol Also in settings or is it tools I don't remember. Don't forget to set the default disk formatting for future drives. I'm guessing you have it currently set to btfrs you should change it to xfs unless you don't want future drives to be xfs.

This Plugin is simply awesome. Saves me so much time now. Before I'd have to remote in and change some files or open up a command prompt and do some typing. Now its simply click on a file and use the rename function and done.

I posted my exact settings up above a bit. I also fixed what I posted a couple days ago that you qouted me on. You do not want the top line to be YES, Yes means disable the plugin. The last line setting it to yes means enable TEST mode. You want things to move, you have to use NO on the last line too. On a side note you can enable Logging and click the button to move and watch files move while watching the logs using Test mode. Or you can disable TEST mode and watch the logs as well. I normally enable TEST and Logging so I can see what the script would do and when I'm happy turn off TEST and let it go. I used to keep logging and check things, but I've since disabled Logging and have my files move once a day vs every hour because I have my server setup to move files, do Plex maintenance and other things between the hours of 6AM and 8AM every morning. Otherwise my drives sleep all day.

You want to make sure the top one Disabled is set to NO. Setting it to YES tells the script not to run.

Used to be Western Digital Greens/Blues. Now I run Exclusively Seagate IronWolfs.

Very Odd, On my MacbookPro using 10.6.3 I can connect via Chrome, Safari and Brave browser. Are you running any kind of ad blocker or safe browsing browser extensions?

@Darksurf Did you make sure the target drive was completely empty with the exception of a single folder clear-me

My system is the following. 4TB Parity 4TB x 6 Data 1TB SSD for Cache 2GB USB for the OS So if I ever want to install larger data drives I have to increase the Parity first. So if I went to 10TB Data Drives my first drive would be swapping out the 4TB for the 10TB. You could honestly think of the Parity as wasted/no space until it saves your butt a few times.

Id probably agree its a little bit of everything you did to improve your system. My i7 4790k was getting 85Mbs when I was using Western Digital Green 2TB drives at 5400RPM 125Mbs Now I'm running 4TB Iron Wolf drives at 5900RPM Are you running Parity every 2weeks? I honestly think 1x a month is good since it doesn't trash on your drives as often and gets the same results in the end.

@HDT Like I said I have my system setup to move files daily at 5:45 and it only moves files 20 days old

Sure when I get a chance later tonight when I get home I'll take a snap of what I have going on. Its nothing really special, but I know sometimes a little bit of info goes a long way when your trying to explain something or understand something.

Nice Job guys. Like many I've had several conversations with these guys and I'm sure many many more.

Nothing like a MegaFloppy lol

I have my system setup to check every day in the AM, look for at least 10% used and move files that are 20 days old. So in a sense it does move the oldest files first the 20day files and then keeps moving the oldest every day

My first one was the Atari 600XL that I had to drive my parents nuts to get a tape drive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_8-bit_family

I'm guessing none of them are 64bit.... 😃

Ok newest update. #Rsync path STORAGE_PATH="/mnt/user0/TV/" CACHE_PATH="/mnt/cache/TV/" CACHE_DISK="/dev/sdh1" CACHE_MIN_FREE_SPACE_PCT="90" CACHE_MAX_FREE_SPACE_PCT="85" Delivers: Welcome to /tmp/user.scripts/tmpScripts/Plex-Caching-Script/script stat: cannot statx '/tmp/user.scripts/tmpScripts/Plex-Caching-Script/log.txt': No such file or directory Info: Log size is ---------------------------- 1 active(s) plex session(s): ---------------------------- - 1/1: Serie: Suits Season 9 - Episode 4/-1: Cairo --------------------- Cache disk usage: 16% --------------------- - Info: 16% space used, quota is 90%, nothing to do -- Info: Cleaning empty directories... It just doesn't cache anything thou.

@JonathanM @trurl Totally understand. I'm trying to peak under the curtain some. I'm trying to figure out what the magic is here since it has me really intrigued but I want to make sure there isn't anything that would cause my system or somebody else's system to go haywire. Also if it does what its supposed to it would put a pretty cool spin on what I have going on at my place.

Is my Storage Path Correct for Plex to read from? Its the current location of my TV shows when they are temporary before the mover moves them. Meaning I use /mnt/user/TV for my Tv shows and /mnt/user/Movies for movies. I'm not as worried about my Movies as much as my TV shows. I'll give this a try tonight. I'm currently at work and thank you for your time to look at this for me.
