In my last UNRAID video I made some clear mistakes. It's about time we fix them. This will include shrinking my array so I can remove a drive. Upgrading the disk and then creating a new cache pool.
MOVESPEED SSD: amzn.to/45f8okf
1. Backup all the data in the share/drive I was removing. You technically could change the disks the share uses and then use the mover, but I only had a few gigs worth of docker config files. Stopped all docker containers and turned off auto-start.
2. Followed the 'The "Remove Drives Then Rebuild Parity" Method' here: docs.unraid.net/legacy/FAQ/shrink-array
3. Upgraded NVME and setup as a single Cache Pool. docs.unraid.net/legacy/FAQ/cache-disk
4. Made my appdata share only use the new Cache pool and uploaded my previously backed up docker configuration files.
5. Manually edited each docker container with the default appdata directory for configurations.
