SABnzbd Forums

Hello,

I have just got around to rebuilding the pc's where I have SABnzbd + SickBeard/CouchPotato running. The OS is now installed in a 256 GB SSD drive and there is a regular SATA drive where I have all the existing content.

As part of a new install, I would like SABnzbd to do all its extraction in the SSD and further when done, move all the stuff over to the regular old school hard drive?

Will I even get a performance improvement or should I just tell SABnzbd to do all it's processing on the regular hdd?

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,

No point in first extracting to an ssd only to copy afterwards, total time will only increase. Temp on the ssd will be fine unless you worry about wear, from there sab will unrar directly to the final destination (on the regular drive).

Does SABnzbd do all its extraction in the temp dir only?

From the temp dir to the final dir.
It doesn't write the extracted files to temp.
