Man if i dont feel like a familiar face around these parts at this point. I just dont want any surprises so i want to get this right he first time, for the long haul.
My intentions are to use ordered file placement to keep what i have together, and fill drives sequentially to make life easy with snapraid. so far ive done no balancing and disabled automatic balancing.
under balancers ive left the hierarchy at default (in case i want to use others later i'll have a lay of the land) and disabled all of them except ordered file placement. Ive used that to set my drive order and gave it a 90% limit.
assuming I want the aforementioned behavior, how do i want the following settings, checked or unchecked?
1 - Allow balancing plug-ins to force immediate balancing (regardless of the automatic balancing setting).
2 - File placement rules respect real-time file placement limits set by the balancing plug-ins.
Now the only other use-case I can foresee in the near future is potentially enabling the scanner plug-in for evacuation. If i were to do so, would i leave it where it is, or move it below Ordered file placement and how would those 4 settings change?
Ugh, i feel like after this I can finally be free of spamming these forums in perpetuity

3 - Balancing plug-ins respect file placement rules.
4 - Unless the drive is being emptied.
