SHSPVR 119 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I'm in procedures setup new linux box as before I normally just used one big 2tb drive for both OS and TV Recording for But now I like reused a pair reg 3TB drive and old 128GB SDD This will be a fresh copy of latest PoP!-OS 20.04 So what looking for some guide line on setup new unformat drive and any necessary procedures setup so that Emby see both as one folder or perhaps I some kind drive pooling zfs ?.

Cthalpa 10 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Consult the manual, or ask about your distro and filesystem recommendations on e.g. Freenode IRC.This is not really emby related, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not really emby related, is it? It is when it not seeing the 3tb hard drive in /mnt folder as before there was nothing as it was set to user session defaults = on So by turn it off and change the mount point to /mnt/disk1 emby is now able to see the 3tb drive and recordings folder that I add I think I got it I hope now just fig the best of add in the 2nd 3tb drive in to mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like mergerFS is what you'd want if you're interested in a JBOD pool and no redundancy for max capacity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastrmind11 717 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 That place is a mess mastrmind maybe, but it's a group of people who already use drive pooling and can recommend a good pooling os. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediacowboy 438 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I use merger fs for media on 7-8tb drives. The Ubuntu 18.04 sees each drive individually and then sees them all as one big drive. I balance everything between the 7 drives. I'm looking at getting another drive for parity. Here is the guide I followed - https://blog.linuxserver.io/2017/06/24/the-perfect-media-server-2017/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
