Haywood Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 I have a small SSD running my OS and just bought a larger second drive. How do I go about moving the cache to the larger drive? Antoineki 1 Quote
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 Detach the drive ("Manage Drive"), and then re-attach it, using the new drive for the cache (you may need to pen the "Advanced settings" section while attaching the drive. Quote
0 Haywood Posted August 12, 2017 Author Posted August 12, 2017 I am currently using a 128GB SSD in that machine. What I'm planning to do take a backup image, apply it to a new 250GB SSD and expand the volume to fill the new drive. Then I am going to format the existing drive and dedicate it entirely to CloudDrive cache. I'm hoping 128GB of dedicated space will be adequate. CloudDrive is running on my Plex server to mount a 15TB volume on Google Drive. Quote
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Well, cloning the drive over shouldn't cause problems.... But you're going to still going to have to detach the drive at one point or another. Your best bet would be to do so before cloning, and then re-attach it once you've gotten everything "settled".
