Adding a second hard drive to a members area
 

OK I have a small problem. My main server is full. I want to add more content to the members area. Whats the best and easiest way of doing this?

Can the members area go over two hard drives on the same domain?
The current hd is 340 Gig. Would it make more sense to get a 750 gig and copy everything onto that, giving me a further 400 gig?

Thanks

I don't know but here's a bump for you....

Thanks a lot. This place used to be great for getting info but recently its a struggle.

you can add a 2nd hdd and split the content no probs with that.
your host should be able to help you with it.

I now nothing about stuff like that...

Great question. I am interested in hearing the awnser.

Well I would love to know how its done as well. My host are saying it can't be done! I need all my members content on the same domain.

Seriously man... It sounds like you need a new host that actually knows something.

Yes it can be done pretty quickly without any problems. If you need a new host msg me.

I've just added a 2nd HD for members area content and it works fine. I don't know the technical details as I have a tech guy who does work on my servers as I know nothing about server stuff.

But, as I understand it, he made a symlink from a folder in the current members area domain to a new content folder on the 2nd drive.

So yes, it is possible :)

OK it seems if you make your symbolic link from inside the members area to another hard drive or directory, then all is well. But for it to be password protected it muct be from the members area for CCBill to work.

Hope that helps others in the same boat.
