I think I've narrowed down my slow read speed. I run ResourceSpace on an Ubuntu VM in Unraid. The VM is installed on an M.2 drive while all the assets are stored on mechanical drives in the NAS. Because these assets are spread over several drives totaling 30+ TB, I suspect the slow search/load is due to loading those thumbnails/previews.

Is there a way to store the thumbnails/previews on a different drive? I know you can split the originals and previews but that is still on the mechanical drives. If I can move these to SSD's or M.2's I think it will speed up the searches.

Thanks.

Disregard. I moved the files to an SSD and then created a symlink. Boom. Load time went from 12-15 sec to 1-2 sec.
