Someone said you could specify multiple directories to search for photos
using semi-colons (or colons?). Alternatively you can use symlinks because is scans down the tree (I assume).<br>

Can you do the same or similar with your video storage directory? That would
save people a ton of trouble, so they can easily grow the amount of
available storage...<br>

Raid and LVM scare me due to added complexity. I have heard
horror stories about a dead raid controller losing everything. A
dead HD is only 500 or 750 GB these days...<br>

I personally don't care if the wife loses "lost" or "dancing with the
stars" and I have to rebuild. I do care if I lose the AVIs I
ripped from our video camera. Those come in at like 12 GB per
hour. Also, I don't want to lose my ripped CD / DVD
collection. I assume the easy way to do this is build a second
machine with another big honking drive and mirror these static things
over, unless I am missing something. <br>
