scania471 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I recently added another drive to my array. I set my share up by selecting the included and excluded drives. I added the new drive to a few shares and I see everywhere that the capacity is more but I would like to know when will the system write to the new HDD? I will fill up the existing drives and then it will start to fill up the new drive? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Depends upon the allocation method chosen for the shares and also the split level chosen for the shares. Quote Link to comment
scania471 Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 It is set to automatically split any directory as required. Now, I'm talking about the appdata folder where my Movies are. My torrent downloader sees the extended capacity but on the dashboard, I see that it writes everything on the older drives. I'm very new to unRAID, I will understand it in the near future. I will test everything. Quote Link to comment
