September 30, 201510 yr Question about the cache drive, I have allocated a 2TB cache drive on my array, I have a great deal of data to copy to my array, what happens if I select more than 2TB of data to copy in one data copy session? If I have the cache drive set to move data at 3:45 AM how exactly does that work? Should I change the cache drive to move its data immediately until I have copied all my data to the array?

There is no setting for moving immediately, but you can manually invoke the move in the webUI any time you want.

September 30, 201510 yr Community Expert I guess my question is more about, will the dive fill up during a copy session and if so what happens, will the copy fail? When copying data to a cached user share, if there is no room on cache it will be written directly to the array.

The copy will fail if the drive fills in the middle of a file transfer. If the min free space has been exceeded before the file transfer starts then the cache will be bypassed.
