March 19, 20188 yr Community Expert So I'm in the midst of setting up another unRAID system and I have a share called movies which every time I move something in there gets put on the cache drive, despite the setting "use cache disk" set to No. I'm moving from a share temp (cache only) on an SSD to a share on the array. So a manual move from: /mnt/user/temp (use cache disk: only) to /mnt/user/movies (use cache disk: no) becomes /mnt/cache/movies/... None of my dockers reference /mnt/cache... Not sure what going here or how to get back the normal behaviour, using 6.5. Edited March 19, 20188 yr by joelones

When using the command line, some of the use cache settings become either strange or convoluted. In your case, you're moving from /mnt/user/temp to /mnt/user/movies. Linux (actually every OS in existence) is smart enough to realize that the mount point for both the temp and movies is /mnt/user, so it does a simple rename operation. Net result is that your file winds up on the cache drive in apparent violation of the rules. Two ways around this normal behavior copy from /mnt/user/temp to /mnt/user/movies Or, move from /mnt/cache/temp to /mnt/user/movies. Very important here though is since you mixing disk shares and user shares to make 100% that the share name (in this case, temp and movies) is NOT identical. Otherwise you will corrupt your files.

Makes sense. Thanks.
