DeadLights Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I'm sorry that I keep coming on here with these kinds of questions but I got dropped into a cluster-F of a situation. Previous IT has 6TB of pirated movies on the corporate network. All sitting on the Unraid server he apparently used as a playground. I was going to share the folder and delete in Windows. Is there a better way to do this? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Use whatever method you are most comfortable. There are definitely fast ways, but given that you probably also have data scattered around that definitely SHOULDN'T be deleted, I'd err on the side of caution and pick through things methodically. Since you obviously stepped into a poorly managed IT situation I also feel compelled to ask about your backup situation. Some people wrongly assume that Unraid's ability to recover a failed drive is the same thing as a backup. IT IS NOT. Unraid by itself can't restore corrupt or deleted data, you need versioned backups in a second physical location. Quote Link to comment
