January 12, 20179 yr Hello Everyone, I just started building an unRAID server and it's going pretty well. I installed a cache drive and started to copy my data from a Synology NAS over to unRAID. However, after a few hundred GBs, I realized I it's probably best to disable the cache temporary to preserve the endurance of the drive during my initial migration. However, the cache file had 150GBs of files that were not transferred by mover yet. If a share has "Cache Drive" set to No, it seems Mover ignores the folder and leaves files on the SSD? Shouldn't mover clear out the cache contents if a folder has been set to No? So in short, mover only processes a folder if Cache Drive is set to Yes/Prefer/etc.? Thanks.
January 12, 20179 yr Yes, mover will only move files when the share is set to use cache. After you've finished copying stuff over, set the share back to use cache and run mover to move the remaining files.

Prefer writes to cache if it can and moves from array to cache. Only writes to cache and doesn't move. No doesn't write to cache and doesn't move.
