Does Immich still require you to store all user photos into the same central directory?
I can’t move my family from Synology’s offering until I can be sure each users photos will be backed up to their own accessible drive.
Is external libraries maybe what you're looking for?
This is how I do it. I don't let it move my files.
I think they're organized into individual user directories (in one location), so could probably set up a directory backup per user to their own device if so desired.
Each user has a subdirectory, I dont see a reason you couldn't symlink them so they actually reside on different drives.
I saw a Linux program that could let you setup a virtual mount with different rules for where each folder actually physically pointed to - like symlinks but with much more customisation. You might be able to use that to setup Immich to save different users to different drives
You can store uploads on a different drive if you want also.
