HDD Help

Post by xTG_IrOnZzZ »

I've been using Sabnzb for a while now but I recently put another hard drive into my Mac mini,

I have a 60GB SSD for the OS
and 500GB for Data.

I need to get Sabnzb to download to Data and not my SSD, it's downloading them to my SSD even though I directed it to the Data hard drive.

Any help? Thanks.

And how did you tell SABnzbd to use the hard disk?
There are two paths involved and possibly more if you use categories.

I added the Path to my HDD (500GB) and it just pathetically creates a folder on my SSD with the name of my HDD! So it's still downloading to the wrong hard drive.

Post a screenshot of your Config->Folders page (or email that to bugs@sabnzbd.org).

First of all: never use the same folder for temporary and final.
Create extra folders under /Volumes/Data, so use /Volumes/Data/temp and /Volumes/Data/downloads resp.
Also, are you sure that the new disk is actually mounted on /Volumes/Data?
