Help, drag/dropped items to Database with insufficient space, items have disappeared

Bummer, but that’s what I was expecting based on the past couple hours of work. Thanks.

I’m a few months into aggregating all my old content from Evernote (primarily) and other sources. The recommended size was 1 GB which felt outrageously large to me, so I reduced it to 100 MB. Clearly that was an error.

This is on a work MBP and I realized last night that that machine doesn’t do local drive backups, so I have to do backups manually. Was in the process of setting all of that up when this happened.

By way of feature feedback - would have been nice if DT had left the originals in the source DB when they were unable to be moved to the target, rather than stranding them as orphans with broken metadata. Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
:frowning:

Lesson learned though: check the target size is sufficient before moving via drag and drop.
