Limit the space taken up on a specific volume

[Woodie3 0]

I have a disc i wish to keep in the pool because it has a ton of space on it but I also want to make sure it keeps about 500gb free at all times. Is there any way to limit how much space drive pool will consume on a specific disc? 

 

If not I will simply repartition the drive but figured I would ask first. 

 

Thanks and this is a really great product

Hi Woodie3, DrivePool does not currently feature limiting usage on a per-drive basis. I'd go ahead with partitioning.

The closest thing to this is the Prevent Drive Overfill balancing plugin where you can set what max percentage or minimum free space to fill drive to, but it applied to all drives and does not allow different settings for different drives.

Thanks - I figured as much. Appreciate the quick replys

 

As a side note it would really be nice to have the Drive Overfill % a per drive option vs. system wide. 

 

Thanks again.
