Recently when balancing has been triggered, not all of the new files added to the SSD are being moved off into the rest of the pool.
See that gray area I've circled on the SSD drive? That's data that's part of the Pool. I'm not sure why it's showing as "Other" and why it isn't being moved off the SSD.
I'm using the SSD Optimizer and it's been working fine until the last few days.
I know this has been asked before - I've even read a few threads on it, but I still can't seem to find a 100% "for sure" answer...
What I have in my pool is this:
Drive A - local drive
Drive B - local drive
Drive C - local drive
Drive D - clouddrive
What I want:
1) All my files to be saved to drives A, B and C
2) Folders that I choose to duplicate ONLY to be duplicated to drive D
What I don't want:
1) Duplicates on any of my local drives.
2) Non-duplicated files on drive D
The thread here: http://community.covecube.com/index.php?/topic/1231-how-do-i-keep-duplicated-data-on-the-pool-but-other-copies-anywhere-else/
is suggesting that I don't change the Drive Usage Limiter balancer, and just create rules for only the folders I want duplicated. In those rules I would ONLY choose drive D.
In doing that, am I not limiting that folder to only be saved to drive D? It's not making much sense to me. How does that put just the duplicates on drive D and allow the "original" file to go on drives A, B or C - when they're all unchecked?
Hopefully someone has a definitive answer for this as it's not very clear.
So a quick update, I've remoted into my computer at home and setup a CloudDrive on my server pointing to a Windows Files Share on the other computer.
So far, in two days, it hasn't disconnected.
