Common questions

Does Dynamix Cache Directories cache the files inside folders?

No. It only caches folder structure, not folders with files, and that folder structure takes only a few KB.

Can I configure and monitor the cache without editing command-line options?

Yes. It provides a web interface for configuring and monitoring the cache_dirs background service without editing command-line options.

How does the plugin relate to the cache_dirs script?

It builds a GUI front-end for entering parameters for the cache_dirs script, which runs in the background.

What did users report on Unraid 6.12.8 when disks started spinning up again?

They reported the plugin configuration page still said it was running, but starting/stopping it or reverting to default settings did not stop the disks from spinning up.
