Actual storage usage is +50% than what Immich shows at Server Stats

For instance, Immich says it is storing 73GiB (≈78GB), while S3 claims it's 121 GB

Why does this happen? Are thumbnails 50% of the content I store?

generated files including thumbnails and encoded videos

Isn't it too much?

Is it possible to store less thumnails with less quality or something?

Alex Tran•11/20/23, 3:53 PM

Yes, you can modify all of that in the admin setting

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:53 PM

Good, I'll check it. Thanks!

Just as a suggestion. It would be good I think to add some stat regarding actual disk usage

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:54 PM

Tyy

Alex Tran•11/20/23, 3:55 PM

actual disk usage can be found on the lower left corner

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:55 PM

ah, then i guess it won't work for me

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:55 PM

i'm using rclone with s3 and it seems it does not support it

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:56 PM

neither it shows actual usage nor max storage

Alex Tran•11/20/23, 3:56 PM

yeah, since we are not officially support it

JuanOP•11/20/23, 3:56 PM
