Dylan Posted March 1 Posted March 1 After loading about 1TB of data onto a Plex server, give Plex a break to process all of that data. After my copies were complete I couldn't understand why Plex responsiveness was almost zero. Until I logged onto the dashboard with the activity button constantly spinning. It is trying to pull a TON of meta-data to associate with all of the movies. So yeah...don't expect to play all of your favorite films and shows just after a huge copy. Quote
Mobius Posted March 2 Posted March 2 i have around 50tb of stuff so thats def gonna take a while when i finally transfer it. Quote

Depends how you set up your library settings / scheduled tasks. If you've got it creating thumbnails, credit detection and other tasks when new content is added, then yes on first install it'll take a while! But likewise, you could allocate more CPU resource to Plex to speed things up? My 10TB of data was done in 12-24 hours Quote
Dylan Posted March 2 Author Posted March 2 Went for round 2 today and about an hour after importing the files this is what the Plex dashboard looks like Quote
