Is it possible to chose here sia stores the files? As I have many HDDs, I do not want them on C:/.

You can combine hard drives into one drive via software in example windows disk management and run Sia from there.

Yes create another disk/volume/partition and put the Sia folder there...
Sia will use storage from the volume that it is being run from...
So if you run it from Drive X then any storage you announce will be utilised from that drive

So the easiest would be to have a big NAS (where you also can use raid to protect content)?

Would it be possible to incorporate a feature where you point SIA to where you want it to save content..? I know you can combine drives, but it requires some technical knowledge in addition to that you risk lose the whole space if you use raid 1. The inability to not chose in fact makes SIA much less attractive to me (but still decent for my NAS).

NAS could prove useful. Only not because of raid, as all content will be available from 12 sources and compilable with 2 of those, random.

If SIA only uses the drive it's put on, it would be easiest to just create a partition you would like it to use. I'm sure as this is in early beta, the option to choose location will be added. From what I read you're kinda looking at this as a final product, which it's not.

Great project tho'. Keeping my eyes on this Cool

Still doesn't work for me, gives me an error when trying to add gateways. I've tried everything I possible can think of and followed the step, even open ports on my router and computer. I guess I'll just wait for the upnp wallet, out of the 4 plus years in cryptos, this is like 3rd wallet that never worked for me from the get go.

Be sure to try them all. I've had an error with some of them, until one of them just worked and the wallet started to sync.

You need the GUI open for it work (deamon running) and give the command "siac.exe gateway add 45.79.132.35:9981" in the folder ...\resources\app\Sia through command line (cmd), ran as admin. But I'm sure you know that last part, maybe a little more details will help out others.

The peer I put in is the one that worked for me, list of peers are available on this thread. Good luck! Or just wait for upnp wallet. Wink
