I have added a new drive to my pool, and I can't seem to get DrivePool to reshuffle the files to use the space evenly (for balancing). I have tried ticking the "When a new drive is added to the pool, files matching this rule should be placed on that drive" but it doesn't stay ticked.
How can i:
1.) Force a re-balancing pass, and
2.) Have DrivePool re-balance all my files to use the new disk?
It should be mentioned I've noticed new files do get written to the disk as expected when using the pool.
This is version 2.2.0.651 Beta running on Windows Server 2016 Standard.
EDIT: I was able to get this to behave how I want via the "Disk Space Equalizer" plugin. I'm still curious why I can't tick the option I mentioned above, though.
