May 8, 20233 yr Quick question - as my array fills I understand it fills one disk to a point, then the next disk, etc. As I near the first 80% warning, will the disk at/over 80% continue to fill - or will it stop at a percentage (90%) and start on the next disk? IE, will I get an 80% warning on disk 1 below, then UnRaid will start using disk 2 until 80%, then disk 3? Trying to maximize my 7.5TB free but have a safe buffer.

May 8, 20233 yr Author To add, thank you for the link (note: read the manual). So looks like I'll be going for third pass on high-water. And ignore the 80% warnings?
May 8, 20233 yr Community Expert The warnings have nothing to do with the allocation mode, you can set the warning to the value you want, Unraid will continue to write to the disks based on the allocation selected, until there's less than 50GB available.
