Thanks for the feedback, I'll re-look at this. TomH

From what you shared above, split-level 1 is correct. With the share name being 'movies' and the next levels being 'movie_name' and 'movie files', this will ensure that the movie files stay on the same disk as the movie name. A couple of questions for you: 1. How big is each movie directory? 2. During the copy process, when did you decide it was doing the wrong thing? (i.e., can you quantify "well beyond 50%"?) If your first disk was filled to 1.449TB, it would have copied the next file before switching to the next disk. In other words, the high-water mark (in this case 1.5TB) doesn't trigger until it adds a file that goes above it. That next movie directory file could have been a large one (e.g. 20GB). If you don't think this is what happened, please let me know and we can look into this further. On your TV show hierarchy, split-level 2 is correct. Thanks, TomH

All very good ideas. The two major areas are: 1. How can I go one level further beyond a "thank you" to someone who has helped me out or provide recognition for a great post; and 2. How can we contribute to a developer (unRAID customer) on a plugin we like. We have discussed this internally in the past and will discuss more soon, but, as you can imagine, the focus right now is on getting the next releases out. Meanwhile, it's great to see your ideas, including the pros and cons. Thanks, TomH

Please list the plugins you use. Thanks, TomH

To find out if your server is 64-bit capable, do the following: 1. Log into your unRAID consul. 2. Type "grep --color lm /proc/cpuinfo" [from WeeboTech's sig] 3. Look for "lm" in the flags (which indicate it is 64-bit capable). TomH

Feel free to add comments to clarify your set up.

If you don't know, we'll share a command line here shortly to help you find out.

If you're using a hardware-mirrored cache, please reply with your configuration. Thanks.

Add up parity + data + cache disk (if present)

I'm glad you found this post useful. Once you enable the Cache on your "Media" Share, it will be automatically replicated on the Cache drive (preferred method). While you can duplicate the Shares on the Cache, make sure there aren't any typos/misspellings or else the data won't get transferred. As you capture data from SB or CP, it will automatically go to the Cache drive first. The Mover will take care of moving any new data to the array at 3:20 am (default setting), unless you change the time. Once the transfer is successfully completed, the original files on the Cache will be deleted. TomH

Thanks John, glad to hear! TomH

Done. Thanks Ian and Gary! TomH

Thanks Dale, great catch. I just changed the first diagram and used the the concept of slots instead of disks. Slots 1-5 are for 3.5" drives on the left, slots 6-10 are for 3.5" drives on the right, and slots 11-14 are for the 2.5" drives in the middle. The reason we have the far right slot allocated for the Cache disk is just due to how TomM likes to wire the AVS-10/4. The motherboard has two SATA3 ports and four SATA2 ports. He has the far left and far right slots attached to the SATA3 ports as he uses the far left for Parity and the far right for Cache, and they can benefit from the extra speed. The other four SATA2 ports are attached to slots 2-5. The remaining 8 slots are attached to a SAS2/SATA3 add-on card. Slots 11-14 are 2.5" and can accommodate SSD Flash drives, also great for using as Cache due to their speed ("Cache Pool" feature coming soon ). TomH

Good point RobJ. I added a note at the beginning. Thanks, TomH

Yes, thanks. Fixed this already. Adding lionelhutz's recommendation next. TomH

Thanks guys. I'll look into your recommendations. I appreciate the feedback. TomH

Thanks Jonathanm. Unfortunately, we're both came down with the flu. I'll follow up with TomM to make sure he helps on this asap. TomH
