I have a bit of a strange problem which was caused since I moved a lot of small files onto my DrivePool.
I have balancing set to the following:
I have 4 SSD's set up with the SSD Optimiser plugin (and 11 HDDs). My problem is that they got filled up with data while the balancing is going on.
I suspect this is because of that fact the 11 HDDs will try to balance themselves perfectly (I also have some folders with duplication enabled) hence it taking almost forever.
I want to move files out of my SSDs but this doesn't happen as the HHD's are balancing among themselves.
How can I make the HDDs stop balancing among themselves? This would ensure that the SSDs can always move files to the HDDs.
My DrivePool is constantly increasing in size so it would not be an issue if, let's say, 1 TB is deleted from a single drive because then that drive will have the lowest % of space used and new files will be put on it (I use Disk Space Equaliser).

I hope it makes sense.
Thank you for taking your time to read this! :-D
