to balance the read/write usage of the discs
-
yeah, but is there any better way to balance out the read/writes other than unbalanced? Maybe an allocation Method which takes the "utilisation percentage" of each disk and not absolute numbers?

Hey there, I have a question regarding the split level of the files on my disks. I have the Allocation Method Highwater selected. So in my unterstanding Disk 2 should start being used when Disk 1 has only 1 TB free. Then till Disk 2 will be filled till only 1 TB free and so on.. But if you take a look at the writes, disk 1 is used aaaaloot more especially because i dont get a ton of new files so all the reads / writes when just accessing the existing files fall back on Disk 1. Is there any better method for splitting the files? I have heard from Unbalanced to move files around but at the same time i have seen a lot of people not recommending using it. Should I consider moving my most used files onto Disk2 for a while? Is there any other allocation Method which would work better with my config ( 4TB + 2 TB drive ) ? thanks, Paigner
