Hello. I setup a new system. Everything seems to work fine, except, when using windows explorer, I don't see the disk1 to disk3, the cache drive. All I see are flash and Media share. How do I show the individual drives, and the cache drive?

Yup, trurl, finally got resolved :-) thanks guys

RobJ, checking the Disk File systems fixed it. Thank you for the help.

My harddrive is almost full. A few hundred MBs left.

So far, no fan in there. Will fix that first. Thanks for the advise.

So far, it's been like that since more than half a year.

Yup, you are right. I am really out of space. I don't know where all that space went [emoji1] trying to delete plenty of files now. But somehow, Ivm downloading more than I'm deleting.

hehehe, all this discussion is to evade the use of linux :-) But I've successfully used MC before. Will give it a try also. But thanks for the clarification. It turns out I already have global shares enabled, and it's the screen I've been seeing all along. I thought there's a way to copy and paste within. Now it's clear you need explorer (file manager) to do that. I'll use windows, or mc on linux. Thanks for the help.

I mentioned that if you wanted to do this that you had to first go to Settings->Global Share settings and enable disk shares (the array probably needs to be stopped when doing this). When you have done this then you get additional shares showing up that represent each of the physical disks so you can bypass the User shares. itimpi, I see the shares within the browser, disk1, disk2 and disk3. I can view the shares. I can see the folders. How do I copy and move within the browser? Or is this just for viewing?

Thanks itimpi for the clarification.

Hi itimpi, how do you move things inside windows Explorer? Do you go to Media, TV, show name, season #, cut it and move it to a temporary location (any desktop), then paste it back onto the same media, TV, show name? By doing this, isn't unraid suppose to follow the high water rule and place it onto a larger drive with bigger capacity?

itimpi, yes, this makes sense. Thought of the same. But how do you move an entire season, and yet, sonarr "sees" that it has been moved? Is it even relevant that sonarr and Kodi sees it at it's new disk? or since it's presented in the Media share, it doesn't matter on which drive they actually are?

trurl, kinda, and kinda difficult to grasp :-) Let me think through it again.

First, my setup: Cache drive- 500 GB Parity- 2 TB Disk 1,2 and 3- all 2 TB I have a media share, named Media. I'm using High-water allocation method. Minimum free space is 2 GB. My split level is set to top three directory levels as required. Use Cache disk setting set to yes. My folder structure is Media /TV /Show Name / Season # Media /Movies /HDMovies /Movie Name My setup should be TV and Movies are found on all drives. Show name and HDMovies can be found on all drives. But each TV season should be in 1 drive alone, so goes for Movie Name. What happens is all downloads are left in the cache folder when disk2 is full. When disk2 is free, shows started moving to disk2, while disk1 and disk3 are quite free. Please see screenshot.

Thanks for all your input. This has been very helpful.

Hello guys, thanks for the input. So far, you've given me good positive answers. Yes, 2 Plex streams should be enough for me. Need to clarify a few things: 1. Are you guys saying this board/ processor combination allows passthrough of gpu directly to vm? 2. Does the Sata chipset of this board critical to the performance of unraid? I'm looking to use WD reds.

AMD processor has 4 cores, and is quite inexpensive. Gigabyte motherboard has 8 sata ports, good enough for a lot of future upgrades on the HDDs. http://www.legitreviews.com/amd-kaveri-a8-7600-a10-7800-apu-review_147879 http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5354#ov Main function of this Unraid server is to run docker, and docker apps such as sonarr, plex, nzbget, couchpotato. I believe the hardware is more than enough for the functions above?

Ok. Thanks guys. Will report this to LT

Yup. Whenever I delete 1 to 2 GBs of files, it will go back to normal. When it fills up, it goes crazy again.

This is my updated picture

The above is still true up to now. Any more suggestions?

CHBMB, thanks for the explanation. I'll delete my appdata.

Which di you consider appdata? I assume select the my-dockerapp and click on the red X on the right? That deletes the old docker app right? I noticed a setting on my cp that says search completed movies from /data/complete/movies. Though my /data is referenced to /mnt/cache/.downloads, my movies, when seeding, is shown saved at /data/complete/movies instead of like TV shows that are located at /downloads/complete/tv. I think this is the cause. But the /data/complete/movies path come from cp. I will have to check settings in cp. Hope this fixes things.

I didn't. I'll try to install it once again.

Out of frustration, I did the following steps: 1. Deleted files inside the transmission app- This brought down usage to 26% docker image size 2. Deleted the whole transmission app- This brought down the usage to 13%. I currently have CouchPotato, Sonarr, NZBGet, PlexMediaServer. My total image size is 25 GB, therefore, it is currently 13% usage of 25 GB. Is this just about right?
