ufish235 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Hi guys! New user here, just starting to learn UNRAID functionality with a trial key. I have not yet set up my 2x8TB array, but I am tinkering with a 128GB NVMe I have installed as Disk 1, which will be used as cache once I figure out my whole setup. The issue I ran into is this: with just VPN configured, and the Community Applications app installed (no actual apps otherwise), I finally got around to activating my first array device. After assigning that disk, I naturally had to format it. However, after formatting it, it instantly read as having used up 20GB of space. What is going on here? Did UNRAID somehow write 20GB of data required for the installation to that disk? Why is my USB showing 500Mb used but somehow UNRAID had 20GB of data waiting to be saved to the first disk I initialized? I've included a screenshot below. Quote Link to comment
Solution JonathanM Posted March 15 Solution Share Posted March 15 When you enabled the docker service, an empty image was created to hold the container executables. Kind of a preallocation. Quote Link to comment
ufish235 Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 Really - what is the best way to investigate this on disk? I am comfortable with Linux command line but I actually don't know where my disk1 gets mounted. Or maybe there is a web GUI to explore the data? Quote Link to comment

Click the little icon to the left of “Disk1” it will let you browse the contents on that disk. alternativly, if you ssh into your machine or click on the webgui terminal, you can navigate through /mnt/user or /mnt/disk1 (never copy data from/to /mnt/user to another disk) Quote Link to comment

ufish235 Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 Thanks all, had no idea the Docker image would be 21GB - that's pretty big for a Docker image, no? Quote Link to comment
