That wouldn't really work for my use case. I'm hoping for a way to 'age files off' of the SSD. I have a lot of media and I want the newest media to be on fast disk.

It's absolutely the pool disk. Any ideas why this never showed up until recently (and in the hundreds)?

I'm see a TON (possibly hundreds per day) of Disk Warnings like the following:
The IO operation at logical block address 0x11 for Disk 13 (PDO name: \Device\00000051) was retried.
in my event log. I've seen a previous thread that says they're normal. However, I've never seen a single one until I recently added an SSD and moved to the SSD balancer. Any ideas?

So without FIFO, when the drive(s) get full, it dumps all of the contents to the archive drives? Is there anyway to do some sort of FIFO so that bits stay on the SSD as long as possible? Maybe some sort of way I could do it with PowerShell?

Excellent. Thanks!

So I'm currently using Drivepool with SnapRAID for backup. For SnapRAID to run quickly, I've turned off the regular balancers and instead just rely on file placement rules to keep everything in balance (I'm mostly just adding and rarely deleting). I've started adding a couple of SSD drives that I'd like for everything to land on, then using a FIFO type policy move things to magnetic drives as the SSDs fill up. What is the best way to accomplish this without the balancers shuffling around data on the Archive drives?
Drivepool SSD + Archive and SnapRAID?

Well, it seems this SSD plugin won't work with SnapRAID. When the drive fills up and the plugin dumps them off to archive, SnapRAID freaks out cause the SSD is now reporting empty. Anyone got any ideas for workarounds?
