vw-kombi Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) They seem to reference the same thing but user0 does not have all the shares. Seems to be anything with cache yes and cache no is on /user0 - but what is this used for ? Edited November 20, 2021 by vw-kombi Quote Link to comment
BRiT Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Correct. User 0 does NOT include cache. 1 Quote Link to comment

Prior versions used it for the mover function, but now it's kept as a handy way to differentiate between files in a share that exist on the parity array or in a pool. It was scheduled to be removed, but too many people still find it useful. 1 Quote Link to comment

standin000 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 /mnt/user directory is the default directory for accessing user data, while /mnt/user0 directory is the backup directory. If your system configuration includes multiple user data disks, /mnt/user0 directory will point to the first user data disk, while /mnt/user directory will point to the other user data disks Quote Link to comment

itimpi Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 This is all covered in here in the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the GUI or the DOCS link at the top of each forum page. 1 Quote Link to comment

As already explained in other post in this thread. /mnt/user is all user shares. /mnt/user0 is all user shares excluding any files/folders that are not on the array. Quote Link to comment
68K Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 From the documentation: When viewed at the Linux level, user shares appear under the path /mnt/user. This includes the files on the main array and also any for the share on any pool. A user share is a logical view imposed on top of the underlying physical file system so you can see the same files if you look at the physical level, as described for Disk Shares. Note that current releases of Unraid also include the mount point /mnt/user0 that shows the files in User Shares omitting any files for a share that are on any pool. This is a different view of the files on your server. However, this mount point is now deprecated and may stop being available in a future Unraid release. Quote Link to comment
