0 Jaga Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 You'll want to get the "Disk Space Equalizer" plugin for DrivePool from this page, and enable it to force an immediate re-balance. When it's done, turn it off again and let DrivePool do automatic balancing from then on. Christopher (Drashna) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Yup, what Jaga said. Specifically, the software doesn't automatically rebalance the data like this, unless there is a specific reason to do so (such one or more disks being too full). Over time, it will accomplish a balanced layout, because new files are added to the disk with the most available free space. However, as Jaga indicated, the "Disk Space Equalizer" balancer plugin aggressively rebalances the pool, so that each disk has the same percentage used, or the same amount of free space (your choice).
