pyrater Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) So i moved all my data to bigger drives to reduce the number of drives I had (which took 4 days) Unknown to me i copied them in a really bad way and now my harddrives look like: /mnt/disk1/ ->Data ->mnt/disk2/Data ->mnt/disk3/Data So basically i need to merge the Data folders on the root of the disk. The problem is move will not merge the folders...... is there a fast way to do this like in windows without using rsync to recopy ALL of the data again..... Is --link-dest=DIR safe?
