Hello everyone, I just installed Immich for the first time and it works like a charm. I just have one small issue. The maximum Storage capacity that Immich can use is 97,9 GiB, as it shows in the bottom left corner. But the SSD where it stores the files has a capacity of 500 GB. I want Immich to be able to use 350 GB of that for storing Images. But there appears to be no setting for that. Not even at setup, i could choose how much storage i want to assign to Immich. Its running in a docker container on my Ubuntu machine.

Hello, this is based on the UPLOAD_LOCATION folder that you have set

primal owl
#

Set while setup of immich?

robust cargo
#

Yes, in the .env file

primal owl
#

UPLOAD_LOCATION=./library

This is what it says. The library folder is in the same directory is the .env file. Is there any way the change the size of that folder?

robust cargo
#

Folders don’t have a size in Linux? It would be based on the size of the backing filesystem

primal owl
#

Okay, i fixed it. I resized the partition.

Thank you very much!
