fnwc Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hi, I have the following directory setup on my unRaid 4.7 server: disk1/Movies/A/Aliens (1986) disk2/Movies/A/Almost Famous (2000) and I wanted to keep all the movie files together on the same disk (everything at the movie name folder level and below). I have set my split level to "(" and that seemed to work, most of the time. However, I've been noticing that sometimes -- usually after I've already moved the files over to the server and sometime later add another file (such as a trailer) -- that the files end up fragmented. In the above example, I copied a trailer for the Aliens movie and it ended up in disk2 for some reason, whereas I expected it should have been stored on disk1 (there was plenty of room on disk1). Should I just change my split level to 2? Quote Link to comment
S80_UK Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 I am not sure that "(" would be recognised as meaningful. Try 2. Quote Link to comment
fnwc Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 Yeah, "(" was working most of the time. But I found that if I added files to the directory below "Some Directory With a (" later, it would split the files onto multiple disks. Oh well. I've changed it to split level 2 and this currently seems to be working. Quote Link to comment
