September 23, 20205 yr I have all my appdata folder on the cache drive, i have read that PLEX can cause a disk to remain spun up at all times, i cant see what if this is the issue with my setup, i had a look at open files but there are lots and possibly most are system files so i dont know what to do to find out whats doing it or how to stop it, i added a diags to this post. warptower-diagnostics-20200923-1025.zip
September 23, 20205 yr Where is this file located? '/mnt/user/docker.img' Since you've told it to store it in the root of one of the disks we can't tell which disk it may actually be on. (Ie: from Main explorer each disk until you find it) Additionally, run the filesystem checks on disk 3 https://wiki.unraid.net/Check_Disk_Filesystems

With regard to file system check on disk 3, i have just rebuilt that drive today after repairing a corrupt filesystem, disk 2 and parity have been spun up ever since
April 21, 20215 yr Perfectly plausible to have copies of docker.img on multiple disks, but only one will be the currently used copy. Recommend you delete the extraneous ones.

Recommend you delete the extraneous ones. But isn't that the way if you have high water set, won't I damage my docker if I delete it from disk 3 and 4?... Then how do I go about stopping disk 2 being spun up all the time

April 22, 20215 yr No unless you've copied them there, or messed up a command or something. .cache, .local, .screen, mdcmd are probably remnants of whatever you did.

Think its safe to delete them or just leave them be ?...probably from the early days when i had even less of a clue
April 22, 20215 yr Is there a way to copy docker.img to a cache drive within Krusader, stop the Docker service and re-map it to the cache pool?
