Transmission is limited by cache drive?


Recommended Posts

Hey there...

 

I have in my unraid a share called Downloads.

The downloads folder in transmission was set to the root of the share. /mnt/user/downloads.

In the transmission gui when I added a new torrent I saw that the capacity left for downloads is as remaining in the unraid "downloads" share.

So far so good.

The problem began when I changed the transmission downloads path to /mnt/user/downloads/downloaded.

Now in the transmission gui I see that the remaining capacity is what left in the cache drive and not in the share itself.

Weird...

The difference is huge because I have a small cache drive.

 

What are your thoughts?

 

Thanks.

 

Shimon.

Do you have the cache drive enabled for your "Downloads" share ?  What happens when you disable it ?
