007craft Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Can somebody tell me whats going on in this picture of my unraid setup and on the far right, me looking at the properties for one of the shares from my windows machine. I have a 14TB Parity disk and 1 5TB hdd in the array. Unraid reports 4.96TB of available space, which seems accurate to me, but why is when I check out the properties of share on the array in windows, its showing 5.39TB available? It seems like its counting either my cache drive or unassigned drive (Which are both 1TB) as being part of the array. Why is this? I do not want my Cache drive to be part of the available array data. If it is I could transfer 5.5TB and half a TB wouldnt be part of the array and parity Edited January 28, 2021 by 007craft Quote Link to comment

iarp Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 What are your share settings? As far as I know, if the share has cache set to anything other than No it'll be included in the size. Quote Link to comment
007craft Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Share is set to YES because I want to utilize the speed of my cache ssd, so when I transfer files over to the array, they goto the cache and then mover moves them overnight to the actuall array disks. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Then it's correct, as long as the share exists on cache it will be included in the total capacity. Quote Link to comment
