Hi @rmistry22 the Multimedia Console will generate and stored the thumbnails in 2 folders:
- /.system/thumbnail/ on the volume where Multimedia Console is mounted.
- /＠thumbnail/ on the folder where photos and videos are stored.
In our tests, thumbnails took up between 5% and 30% of the original file size, depending on whether generate large 4K thumbnails were enabled.
Any one come across this before or have any ideas how I can resolve? - Ideally I would like to move the Thumbnails to Storage Pool 2 which has lots of free space.
Sorry that we can not move thumbnail from Pool 1 to Pool 2, but if you move the folder where photos are stored from Storage Pool1 to Pool 2, the /＠thumbnail/ should then move to Pool 2 and no longer occupy space in Pool 1.
180000 photos is a lot of photos, you can open a support ticket and let the Support team to arrange the Multimedia Console team to be on standby remotely during the move.
