Diskspace warning

Is there a way to turn this off or alter the percentage?
I think Newsbin and I have different views on what's low disk space as it seems to be worried that I only have 0.5TB left on that drive.

What version are you using and what's the exact message? There are a couple different messages.

Code: Select all
[Filename]
MinFreeSpace=X 


The default is 1000 megs (1 GB) if it's not set. If you exit Newsbin and add this to the NBI file, you can control when the min-free space triggers. If you set it to 100, that would be 100 megs.

Sorry, you're right, I should have grabbed that (did screenshot it but mind went elsewhere)

6.81 Build 5.80

I was the annoying green bars that come up that I never seem to be able to dismiss and have to force quit the program. I'll grab it again if I see it.

was definitely more than 1Gb though. Seemed like a percentage as drive is 6Tb.

It's an absolute number.

Keep in mind it's monitoring both the data and the download folders so, if your data folder is on C and your download is in D then you might get paused because C is getting full while D is fine.

Ok, thanks, I'll treat it as a glitch and worry about it if it happens again.

Just FYI, that one with the red line showing lack of space was definitely that drive.
