hello
im using a tablet PC as a carcomputer
it has a built in 15GB drive which is now full of music
i want to add an external drive if possible
but i want to be able to see all the files from both drives

ive been using mediacar but im open to using other software
are there any front ends that will allow music to be split between two drives?

Shamelessly stolen from the MediaEngine FAQ, but will work with any program

2) Find and download a program called junction.exe from http://www.sysinternals.com and create hard links of folders (or files if you want).

Those of you using Windows 98 / ME... for Pete's sake, upgrade!
