Hi, I have been micromanaging the placement of folders thru the Folders tab under File Placement. I then came across this post from years ago which suggests that I can use the Rules tab under File Placement to organize the folders alphabetically like so:
\TV-Shows\A* ---> HDD-1
\TV-Shows\B* ---> HDD-2
\TV-Shows\C* ---> HDD-3
This should place all subfolders under "TV-Shows" that starts with "A" to HDD-1 and so on. I've always thought the Rules tab was for files and not folders. I would just like to confirm if it indeed works for folders as well and if the above example would work? I couldn't find an activity log to test out the rule and check to see for myself. Thanks!
