For me the JohnnyFFM PoC1->PoC2 converter is reporting not enough disk space for in-place conversion. Huh

Garbage. Figures... it sounded too good to be true anyway, time to replot.

Hi,

Would be a little more informative if you said what size drive you are replotting, how many plots, how much free size....
I have used version 1.8 and 2.0 for each of my SMR 8TB drivers, some which have as little as 463MB free, and all have worked fine. (I have plots of 7 * 1 TB, 2 * 200Gb and 1 * remainder - 7.57TB formatted).

Dependent on your plotting speed, you could remove just your smallest plot, convert with Jonnys for the rest and then you just have 1 file to replot.

Or just have lower read speeds and dont even bother re plotting. If you're in something like the 0-100 pool, then it doesnt really matter how long your reads take, so long as you get all your submissions in.

I have dozens of drives of varying sizes to convert, and they are full... most have < 10MB free space. Some guidance on how much free space is required per drive to convert would be beneficial. It would have been especially useful to know this ahead of time. I would think an in-place conversion means that the new plot file would take up the same amount of space as the old one, and not require some set amount of free space per drive. If there is some sort of temporary space reservation required for working files during the conversion, the program should have an option to use a different drive for that (one with enough free space on it).
