April 14, 200818 yr Hi all. Can someone explain how the consolidated folders is done (script wise)? disk layout: /disk1/movies/movie1.avi /disk2/movies/movie2.avi becomes: share: /tower/movies/movie1.avi /tower/movies/movie2.avi Thanks in advance Only Tom and provide more specific details, but he wrote a proprietary "fuser" device file-system for unRaid that creates "in memory" a consolidated set of pointers to the files on the various disks in folders named alike. These pointers are not links, but you can think of them like links. (If they were links you would see reference counts of 2 on every file) More importantly, the custom file-system has a built in space allocation algorithm so when a new file is created via it, then file is actually created on a disk with the appropriate space. It is much more complicated than a simple "script" Joe L.
