SSD only mini-server - good resource-efficient settings? TRIM? "spindown"? optimizing energy consumption?

You can use cp to copy the data, move to a temp folder first, then copy back.

out of laziness I now copied a folder using the dynamix file manager. It remains at the exact same size as the source (1.11TB). So the compression is either not in effect or completely uneffective? Do I need to copy to another drive first and then back?

Following your suggestions I now migrated to the following setup:

Interestingly this had a significant effect on power consumption - after the change it looks like this:

Before it was always >10W:

I hope with a future update I can use my cache again, and I will not need the 2GB SD card for my "pseudo array".



Even though I can send the SATA SSD to low power mode via the GUI, it is always back online after a while and will never reach it on its own (spindown delay is set to 15min).
