Unable to copy a file to the NAS despite having lots of free space on multiple drives

Thank you everyone for your help.

I just noticed this topic and reported something similar here with 6.12.11. For the life of me I cannot see what I did wrong or why unraid is allocating this way.

Don't see anything specific to this but there seems to be a "cache" pool defined and used in shares but with no disks assigned to it?!

yes.  I removed the cache drive as it was only 500GB in size and not big enough to handle files 1.5TB in size.  Do I need to do something more to remove the cache?

I'm still having trouble copying a large file to the NAS.  The last time I tried it was either a 1 TB or 1.5 TB file. The share is set to use only disk 9 and 10.  Disk 9 has 2 TB free and disk 10 has 4 TB free.  The copy failed.  Perhaps the problem is my Windows system.

I am considering backing off all the data, resetting Unraid to the initial state, and starting over.

Yes you should go edit all share settings and remove any references to it.
