Set the "BitLocker_PoolPartUnlockDetect" setting to "False" and restart the service.
To me per-folder duplication is a must have of DP, along with >2 duplication counts.
As others say, I like the ability to mix in subfolders important and less important things, so that some folders will be duplicated and others not.
Having to create two pools would simply not work for me:
* I share the pools over the network, so I would certainly need 2 shares per category: 1 on the duplicated pool, 1 on the non-duplicated one. (too cumbersome to maintain and to use)
* I would need to subdivide my HDDs into volumes to provision the duplicated and non duplicated pools; that completely destroys the concept of DP where there is no need to manage anything in relation to volumes.
Regarding parity, we touch here to something else that is a major advantage of DP to me: the ability to access my data by plugging a previously pooled HDD in any computer, without any specific install.
I am ready to pay the cost of full duplication instead of parity for this advantage.
There is one other thing I would really like to see added to DP, as you talk about folders tagging Alex.
This is folder based balancing.
For now you balance on a per file basis, distributing them across the HDDs.
You already have a plugin to group files depending on the moment they are created.
What would be really great is to tag a folder so that its entire content is always kept on one HDD (no matter which one); when rebalancing the entire folder is considered as one unit to balance; when new files are created on that folder, they are created on that HDD.
