It appears Google’s solution doesn’t seem feasible, though copying files one by one might be a workaround. Moving folders rather than individual files could help improve performance. Ideally, transferring files sequentially would be better than handling many large files at once, which slows down the process. The note mentions that using an Unraid share instead of direct disk writes might reduce the impact.
This refers to the order of operations rather than simultaneous writes. Sequential versus random focuses on how data is stored in blocks, affecting retrieval efficiency. It doesn’t relate to write speed for multiple files or whether processes run concurrently.
Yeah, you're referring to file order in terms of sequence. I understand that sequential on a drive affects performance differently. Writing 50 files versus just one should definitely impact speed. I expect a noticeable slowdown when copying a single episode versus moving all season files and dragging them in. Also, it would have been better if the setting was from Windows to an Unraid share rather than using parity with disk writes, which likely reduced wait time.
