Sorry for reopening a very old thread, but @Christopher (Drashna) wondering if you could clarify some terminology for me.
In the options for the SSD Optimizer it has two sliders, ""Fill SSD drives up to:", and "Fill archive drives up to:" The tooltip that comes up when you hover over says "After this much space is occupied on all of the SSDs, all new files will be placed on the archive drives."
This seems to be pretty clear, but if I turn the % down it still seems it may still be putting files on the SSDs, which is fine actually. What I want is for the SSD to be able to be filled to the brim with stuff that all gets emptied overnight, I'm just not clear on the function of this slider.
My question is:
Does the plugin totally empty the SSD into the archive regardless of this slider's position?
If not, what defines how much gets emptied, the sliders in SSD Optimizer? or the built in "Prevent Drive Overfill" plugin?
If I want to be able to fill the SSD completely with files being ingested into the pool, should I set "Fill SSD drives up to:" to 95-100%?
