Exactly what to do would depend on your platform/OS, but, for instance, some
of us using Mac OS X have created a symbolic link to the ~/Music folder
replacing /var/music in the Netjuke directory.

I would think that for a multi-drive setup, you could instead keep the
/var/music directory and place symbolic links to different drives within it:

/var/music/volume1
/var/music/volume2

You could do the same thing on linux/unix. Might be trickier on Windows. I
don't think a "shortcut" works quite like a sym link.

Anyway, that's what I was planning to do when my drive fills up, which will
be soon...very soon...
