I have several files on ACD that return 404 errors when downloads are attempted. {"statusCode":"404"}" to be precise! They appear as normal in the web interface, but downloads always fail. Is this the same issue? I've made contact with Amazon regarding this, and have had it escalated to the Drive team, so am hoping for a response soonTM.
 
On the other hand, if it was the 429 errors when downloading, then that has since been solved.

I've just finished coding a new balancing plugin for StableBit DrivePool, it's called the SSD Optimizer. This was actually a feature request, so here you go.
 
I know that a lot of people use the Archive Optimizer plugin with SSD drives and I would like this plugin to replace the Archive Optimizer for that kind of balancing scenario.
 
The idea behind the SSD Optimizer (as it was with the Archive Optimizer) is that if you have one or more SSDs in your pool, they can serve as "landing zones" for new files, and those files will later be automatically migrated to your slower spinning drives. Thus your SSDs would serve as a kind of super fast write buffer for the pool.
 
The new functionality of the SSD Optimizer is that now it's able to fill your Archive disks one at a time, like the Ordered File Placement plugin, but with support for SSD "Feeder" disks.
 
Check out the attached screenshot of what it looks like

Edit: Now up on stablebit.com, link updated.

If you have a large amount of "other" files taking up space on your pool drive and would like to reduce the amount of "wasted" space then...
 
Warning doing this could stuff up you pc so go carefully and if it goes to pot its not my fault
 
Your friend here is the powershell cmdlet "vssadmin"
 
if you run the command via an elevated powershell window
 
vssadmin list shadowstorage
 
it will list your vss stores etc
 
and then run
 
vssadmin resize shadowstorage /on=[drive letter]: /For=[drive letter]: /MaxSize=[maximum size]
 
See http://woshub.com/how-to-clean-up-system-volume-information-folder/
 
for more details
 
got rid of 70GB+ of unneeded vss data for me
 
Enjoy
