November 8, 2025Nov 8 HelloI’m having trouble understanding an issue on Unraid 7.2.Two days ago, I emptied my cache drive because it was full. No problems there, but I realized that my “Bibliotheque_Plex” share, where I store my movies, was set to use the cache (as shown by the icon and the text on the right). However, it still showed 22 TB of available space. When I went into the share settings, I couldn’t change anything — it’s set to “cache only” for primary storage, nothing for secondary, and most options are grayed out.In the end, my cache drive emptied correctly and I was able to put in the new 1 TB drive for the cache.But now, the share Bibliotheque_Plex is still showing as using the cache and only shows 250 GB free (from my cache) instead of free space on the array. I’m worried this might cause problems later. Even after stopping Docker and the VMs in the settings, there’s no way to move this share to the array — it remains grayed out.Thanks for any ideas or suggestions!

November 9, 2025Nov 9 Hi,I just fixed same issue by renaming share configs on flash drive. See same issue here https://forums.unraid.net/topic/194683-720-can-not-change-primary-storage-for-user-share-to-array/
