Limit number of drives scanned simultaneously?

Yes and no.

Specifically, by default, StableBit Scanner will only scan one drive per controller.  And in fact, you have to get into the advanced configuration to increase that.

So if you're seeing multiple drives being scanned at once, it's likely because they are connected to different controllers (you can verify this by selecting the "group by controllers" option in the UI.

I have a TerraMaster 4 bay direct attached storage unit connected by a single USB cable. Unfortunately, Scanner reports each drive as a separate controller; is there any way to get Scanner to only scan one drive at a time?

@Christopher (Drashna)i am having the same issue as JWhitton here - I have a 4 bay device that connects with a single USB-C cable that is being seen as multiple controllers, but if i disable scanning on all drives but 1, i'm getting 40-50 mbps scanning speeds... if the disks are scanned simultaneously, i get llke 8-10mbps per disk.  Would prefer to have it stick to a single disk, otherwise it will take forever to get to 100% scanned on each disk.
