bitfidelity Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Is there a way to force the software to scan no more than a single drive when automatic scanning is enabled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Christopher (Drashna) Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 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.

1 JWhitton Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 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?

Would prefer to have it stick to a single disk, otherwise it will take forever to get to 100% scanned on each disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
