June 3, 20215 yr I have a question that may have been answered before but I wasn't able to find it I have 2 shares, downloads and movies, both shares are using cache=yes using the same cache drive I noticed that after a download it's completed and my torrent client starts the transfer to the movies share unraid phyisically transfer the file inside the cache drive intead of just reasigning it to the new share without coping it, this it's kind of waste of ssd longevity There it's an option to avoid coping the file? Thanks

What you are wanting to happen is actually what usually happens (and can be unwanted behavior) when a file is moved. The linux command for move and for rename is the same, mv, and often a file will be "renamed" to another path on the same disk instead of getting moved to another disk, sometimes in violation of any settings for the destination user share. For example, if you move a file from a cache-yes share to a cache-no share, it will often just get "renamed" and end up on cache anyway (in a folder named for the cache-no share) despite the destination share being cache-no.
