Hello Everyone.
I've been running Freenas 9.1.1 for quite a while and it's very stable and don't have any issues at all. I use Freenas as a basic Windows fileserver for backing up customer data before working on their computer. The volume is ZFS.
What I would like to do (if possible) is to find a faster way to delete old customer data. I usually keep their data for 30 days, but most of it stays a lot longer because I get busy and don't delete them unless I start running out of space on the volume.
I've used Windows Explorer to delete massive amounts of data, but it's very slow and many times will prompt several times to "make sure" that I want to do that...
I've also used CMD prompt DEL command as well as PowerShell Remove-Item command. Both of these work faster, but it still seems to take way to long to purge old files and folders....
Is there a way to browse / edit / delete files and folders from the Freenas GUI?
Thanks!
John
