Copy/Move File in same drive

[Bazzu85]

Hi,

a question related to the copy/move performance.

I've a Folder configured in 4 drive (no duplication)

M:

R:

V:

W:

All drive are filled up except the R: one.

The problem: I've my video working directory in R: outside the pool. When I move the video files (1gb aprox for each) into the drive pool they are placed in R:.

The speed is half the normal, I think because half is used for read/half for write. There's an option to bypass this problem? moving the file manually to PoolPart.xxxxxxxxxxxx folder is instant..

Windows always performs "copy-then-delete" rather than "move" whenever the source and target volumes are different. Short answer is that's not something DrivePool can bypass, as pools being volumes is how DrivePool does its thing.
