| − | == Issue Analysis Requests == | + | == The Future == |

| − | '''Completion estimate: 50%'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | This has been requested often. One example of a volume that doesn't reside on a physical drive is a mounted TrueCrypt volume.

| − | === Planned for Future Implementation ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Per-folder Balancing Rules ====
| |
| − | You should be able to limit file placement to a set of pool parts based on the path name.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Drive Removal Improvements ====
| |
| − | Drive removal should have more flexible options in terms of:
| |
| − | * Optionally, automatically closing handles to files that are in-use on the pool part being removed.
| |
| − | * Optionally, automatically restarting services / applications that have files open on the pool part being removed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Better Management of Running Out of Disk Space ====
| |
| − | When an existing file cannot expand due to running out of disk space on some particular pool part, instead of returning the out of disk space error, we should force an immediate and quick re-balance in order to free up the disk space required for the file expansion and allow the expansion to go forward uninterrupted.

| − | No new features are planned for this version, however bug fixes will be applied for any confirmed issues.

| − | == StableBit Scanner 2.X ==
| |
| − | === Deeper BitFlock integration ===
| |
| − | '''Completion estimate: 20%'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Expect to see much deeper and more functional BitFlock integration in the future, in particular:
| |
| − | * More metadata about drives from the manufacturer spec sheets integrated with the SMART interpretation system.
| |
| − | ** Maximum operating temperatures, per model.
| |
| − | ** Maximum load / unload cycles, per model.
| |
| − | ** Warranty time period for your model.
| |
| − | ** Links to the manufacturer's web site and RMA request pages.
| |
| − | * Enhanced SMART interpretation using aggregated statistics for your drive model.
| |
| − | ** Your drive age will be compared to other drives in the system of the same model giving you a better idea of how often your model fails.
| |
| − | * Create password protected BitFlock nests containing your SMART data, right from the StableBit Scanner UI.
