JorgeB Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Only the first one will be accessible when using the user share, both can be accessed when using the disk share. 1 Quote Link to comment

Unraid will only show one of them (I think the one on the lowest number disk) at the User Share level. You can now get some unexpected behaviour because if you delete/rename/move the first file at first glance the file seems to still be there. Actually you are now seeing the second copy as the first copy is no longer masking the second one. Quote Link to comment

I made the mistake of trying to avoid this all by using /mnt/diskX whereas it's less neat but much simpler to work from a /mnt/user state from the beginning. Quote Link to comment

cbr600ds2 Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I hate to jump in a bit late so I think I'm following. I just had a weird question related - if I delete an excluded/included and it starts writing to more than one disk (like it should eventually) when something accesses that share it will spin up both drive's correct?
