March 18, 20224 yr I *think* I know the answer but safe over sorry... Unraid was crashing a bit back and I used syslog server to mirror syslog to flash drive. Now, that I have turned logging off, my flash drive is quite. a bit "larger" than it was. I went to download a copy and it took forever. On thumbdrive is it SAFE to clear out the LOGS folder? Specifically syslog.txt that is taking up an extra ~600mb(I think I am reading that right)?

It is always safe to clear out that folder as long as you are sure you no longer want its contents for troubleshooting purposes.

March 18, 20224 yr I have no easy access to my server from work, but I think you can easily see the size of any drives (boot drive included) from the Main tab.
