Balancing Folders

Technogod

I'd like to be able to add a folder to the balancer so that all files in the folder are stored on one pool drive. Acronis backup files fail validation if backup files that are stored on multiple drives. I'm running version 1.2.0.6817. I think I read this would be available in 1.3.

You cannot choose which files/folders DP will balance to which drive

Actually, both Technogod and saitoh183 are correct: it is planned for 1.3, but you cannot do this now.

From http://blog.covecube.com/2012/08/stablebit-drivepool-1-2-beta/

"But balancers can’t do everything. For example, they can’t designate which folders go onto which disks. For this we will need multiple pool support."

"Multiple pool support is coming in DrivePool 1.3 later this year."
