I'm currently downloading 12gb of dvd's on a harddrive with only 8gb free. taking in account the unpacking of a dvd takes another 4g i need 16gb of space. I know Sabnzbd currently supports the feature to stop downloading when only x mb/gb is free but it'd be cool if Sab could warn you when you're downloading more than what's currently available on the harddisk.
Also it would be nice if when download folder 1 is full, it could continue in another folder preferably keeping all rars&pars that belong together in one folder so we won't have to move them manually afterwards.
Only download if enough space available
Re: Only download if enough space available
The only thing SABnzbd supports is a guard on the "incomplete" drive.
This is to prevent data loss.
We will not implement an extensive system to guard general disk usage.
This is because unpacking on a full disk will not cause data loss.
Resuming repair and/or unpack is now quite inconvenient.
However, we'd rather put some effort in making repair/unpack retries possible from the History page.
