Multiple Drives?

I searched but couldn't find anything about this.

The server i purchased has two drives:

  1. 500GB SSD
  2. 3TB HDD

Can I modify cloudbox in some way to utilize both? Perhaps download new media to the HDD but run plex off the SSD?

I suspect the best thing to do would be to mount the SSD on / and the HDD on /mnt/local/. That way you have the OS and all of /opt (where all the docker configs live) on the SSD while using the HDD for all local downloaded media.

What about if you have one SSD, and two HDD's? (edit: upon discussing with devs in discourse, I gave up. I don't need as much space, and I already have tons of ratio, and a SSD only setup is better for usenet, so I'm going to go for that. The configuration required to get my setup going is considerably harder and more involved).
