June 21, 20215 yr I recently accidentally filled up ~ and the webUI crashed. Thankfully I was able to fix it through the terminal but it made me wonder where the files in ~ are actually stored?
June 21, 20215 yr I am not familiar with this, but I'd say that unless it is on a clearly defined path, it is probably on RAM.
June 21, 20215 yr Community Expert I think ~ is the home directory of the logged in user, which for Unraid is the root user. And it is in fact in RAM (rootfs). Filling rootfs will definitely make things crash since the OS can't work with its internal files when it is full.
June 21, 20215 yr root@Monster:~# cd ~ root@Monster:~# pwd /root Yeah this is the root user's home directory, in RAM
