kit17 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) This is my disk usage All shares have set to use the "High-water" allocation method, and most of them have set to use "any directory" split level. Whenever I download some files to one of the "any directory" share, most of the time the files go to disk1. Is it because of the capacity difference between the disks? I want to move the files between the disks based on the current shares' settings, so that the files can be distributed to the disks more evenly. The goal is to make the disks having similar free space. Is there any plugin can do this? Or can it be feature request? Edited March 16, 2018 by kit17 Quote Link to comment

Fill up 4TB until is has 1TB free 2a Fill up 2TB until it has 1TB free 3. Fill up 4TB until it has 500G free 3a Fill up 2TB until it has 500G free 3b Fill up 1TB until it has 500G free 4 Fill up 4TB until it has 250G free. 4a, etc At this point every drive will fill up until it has 250G free then 125G free etc. 1 Quote Link to comment
