Using Windows 10 Pro, DP 2.3.1.1410 BETA, Scanner 2.6.2.3869 BETA
One Pool under letter B:\ with over 40TB size
Long time user of Covecube solutions, just wanted to optimize speed for certain files, by using two SSD for \PICTURES and \MUSIC folders.
For that, I just added the two SSD drives into the Pool and configure a "File Placement" rule using "File Placement Option" to USE only the 2 drives for mentioned folders.
Looking on the SSD's root GUID PoolPart directory and lo-and-behold, other files\Folders (eg. BACKUP, MOVIES, ...) landed there, and no matter I do, they love to stay on the expensive NAND. The \PICTURES Folder is 2x Duplicated (around 900GB including duplication usage) and the \MUSIC is 770GB not duplicated. The SSD are reporting 1.31TB and 932GB free.
Everything under "Balancers" Plugins, is set to Default and active are the: Stable Bit Scanner, Volume Equalization, Drive Usage Limiter, Prevent Drive Overfill, Duplication Space Optimizer
The follwing are "Disabled": Disk Space Equalizer, SSD Optimizer, Ordered File Placement Rules.
Why are the "File Placement Rules" not working ?!?
