Go/React/Tailwind app to move folders/files between Unraid disks
Unbalanced is a powerful Unraid plugin designed to simplify the management of your disk space by facilitating the transfer of files and folders within your array. With its dual operating modes, Scatter and Gather, Unbalanced allows users to either distribute data across multiple disks or consolidate it onto a single disk, making it a versatile solution for various data management tasks. Whether you’re looking to reorganize your media collection or prepare a disk for a filesystem change, Unbalanced provides the tools needed to efficiently manage disk space.
What sets Unbalanced apart is its ability to operate in the background while providing real-time updates on the transfer progress. This means you can continue your other activities without interruption, all while ensuring that your files are being handled correctly. The plugin’s user-friendly interface and detailed planning step make it easy to execute file transfers according to your specific needs.
