Hello,
I've done a bit of searching and can't quite find the answer to my problem.
First off: My software versions:
CloudDrive 1.0.0.631 BETA
DrivePool 2.1.1.561
I have a Drive Pool consisting of a local Disk and a Cloud Drive. I am using Amazon Cloud Drive (hence the 1.0.0.631 version software).
My pool is set up to duplicate everything x2...and since I have 2 devices (one local, one cloud), everything gets duplicated both locally and in the cloud.
It has worked nearly flawlessly. I've only had a few problems during power outages where the Pool had to remeasure and re-balance.
The only persistent issue I see is when I try to access files. If I load a folder full of music, it seems to take forever while the meta-data is pulled into the windows explorer view.
Upon further investigation, it looks like some (if not all) of the read I/O is going to Amazon Cloud Drive to pull down this information. Since all data is fully duplicated on the local hard disk, I was wondering if there was any way for Drive Pool to "Prioritize" drive reads? For instance, never read something from the cloud when it exists locally.
Is this possible?
