January 18, 201313 yr Hi, Can you please help with the following: I added several disks from an old build to my server. The thing is that the files on those disks were just "dumped" in a share called "Media". I now want to add subdirectories to this share like Bluray, MKV, TV Series, and then move the respective files to these subdirectories. Can this be done so the files won't be actually copied and stay on the disk they are now on? This saves a lot of time, I am talking about several TBs of data. Maybe any of you guys have another way of doing this?
January 18, 201313 yr sure... use mc thru console, or copy within the disk share, unraid will move them instead of copying..

So easy, why didn't I think of that? Probably because I haven't the separate disks exported.

If you use Midnight Commander from the console on the vCenter web Client for your unRAID VM (based on your sig your unRAID is in a VM) you don't need the disks exported to do the move.
