After you transfer your files, can you check to see whether they're on 
the iPod?  (iPod_Control\Music\F?? folders)?

Can you check to see the last updated time on the iTunesDB?

I'm wondering if (a) It's sending the files to the correct drive (is 
there an iPod_Control directory on any of your other drives?), and (b) 
if it's actually updating the database file.
