Killed the Array and moved all the 4x 4tb to a pool and created a pool from them. When I setup the share and look at the 4x nvme, 1 says btrfs and I get info the other 3 have nothing. no data, no info. Is it something like Fill vs High Water?

Just an update. Shutdown Unraid and removed the USB drive. deleted the trail file that was giving an error in the logs. reinserted and powered on. Docker started and the terminal is working. Still the error with not enough space

Started a new Project and ive been looking at unraid to try (Proxmox, Turnkey, FreeNAS from past). Got a GMKtec G9 (4x M.2 and 64gb emmc) 4x 4tb M.2 Gen4 USB 3.1 Samsung Drive Fit 64gb Unraid 7.0.1 (Starter) Installed, added 4x4tb to make the Array. Created a share "Media" Minimum free space was set to 1TB High Water Auto Split any Directory as required All 4 Disk included 0 Disk Expluded SMB Share is public From my Windows 19 Machine I have a mapped drive to my Proxmox 40tb share and to the 16tb Unraid "Media" Share. I drag and drop from the Proxmox to the the Unraid and I get an error 1 Interrupted Action There is not enough space on Media (NasG9-16tb Media Server)). You need an additional 116gb to copy these files. Ive rebooted. I changed the "minimum free space" to a larger number (3.5tb) to 0kb to 500gb. Reading the forums ive attempted to copy smaller files and it works for a bit but then I hit a wall (Im down to single folders being transfered). Checked High Water, Checked Minimum free, checked included and excluded, no cache, format is XFS on all 4 drives, no parity, and ran te "New Permissions" tool. That is 1 issue and my biggest. Docker Service failed to start was the other issue and when I click on Terminal I get a 502 error "Bad Gateway". Docker was not working before and I changed the "Docker data-root" to xfs vDisk and rebooted and it worked, but now it is not so something to do later. Any help would be appreciated nasg9-16tb-diagnostics-20250427-1224.zip

Hello Im new to Unraid. Ive never done an Unraid server but always wanted to try. I mostly do Proxmox/TrueNAS, but want to try something new. I am building a new system. Ive landed on a Lenovo P510. My question is about my HDD and m.2 setup. Ive been reading that you dont want them mixed. I have 4x 10tb HDD and 4x 4tb m.2 drives and 1tb m.2. My understanding is that you would set it up as say 1x 10tb as parity and 3x 10tb as the array with the 1x 1tb as cache. Then I would setup the 4x M.2 as a pool. Am I understanding that right? What are the benefits of a pool vs Array on unraid? What is the layout. I plan to add a 12gb vram Nvidia card into the 16x PCIe for some AI work and game streaming. I will use a 16x PCIe m.2 adapter for the 4x 4tb m.2 so I can have fast storage. The 30tb is just slow storage, dump that will be written to once and just store the files. 8x PCIe for a dual 10g intel nic. Network backbone is 10g and 2.5g. Thaks for any help
