What do you mean fix that? that's the amount of files and folder inside the Plex Media Server folder...

I have more confidence in the zip idea to be honest. But if Acronis still looks inside the zip it won't be any faster. As for the VHDx, don't know anything about it but same goes there. Perhaps talking about this here is not the best idea. I sent you a PM long ago. If you are ignoring me you can ... and then ... also ✌

Hmm, but if VHDx is not using RAM it stands to reason it won't be any faster then a native SSD 😁

Yeah, I had to remove ImDisk earlier because whatever I did, I could not get PlexMediaServer.img from NOT loading at boot 🤣😒 doing that I saw that Windows has its on Ram Drive. This is, if I recall related to the virtual parts you are suggesting, yes? Gonna look into the zippy thingy.

Interesting, If I recall I tried zipping it but that takes just as long. Either way, gonna figure something out. For now I'm trying to understand WTFMFAW (What The Fuck Mouther Fucker Ass Wipe) file transfers is slow for only mkv files! I suspect Windows mkv metadata reading is broken, looking for a alternative. Moving the same mkv files zipped transfers at full speed

Hmm, but I don't backup Plex Media Server everyday. It's quite intensive takes about 10 minutes. The idea was to use ImDisk, create an image of the folder, have it save/sync at shutdown, mount it at start. Then use Acronis to backup the image file instead of the folder. But I never came that far because a 5 minute shutdown is a deal breaker for me 😒

What backup? 😎

According to my tests, the archive attribute is set automatically by the system at any file creation or change. And it works for any native file system. After all, this is the purpose of this attribute. After reading this erlier I check if the files in Plex Media Server had this attribute, all seem too. But as I said. It don't mater if "Copy only files with Archive attribute" is checked or not. It takes 5 minutes for the ImDisk Toolkit Helper Service to shutdown, showing this message Shutting down...
