Why do I need to mount a drive to the storage folder? #
Mounting a large drive to the vidiot ‘storage’ folder allows you to expand the size of a smaller drive. For example, maybe you have a 1TB drive from which you are running the Vidiot program. A 1TB drive might not be enough to store a season’s worth of customer media. Especially if you are running the OS from that drive as well. You could buy a larger drive and mount that drive to the ‘storage’ folder to increase your storage space. You can even mount a USB drive to the ‘storage’ folder.
To mount a drive in an empty folder by using on Windows #
- Right click start and choose Disk Management, right-click the partition or volume that has the folder in which you want to mount the drive.
- Click Change Drive Letter and Paths and then click Add.
- Click Mount in the following empty NTFS folder.
- Type the path to an empty folder on an NTFS volume, or click Browse to locate it.
If you cannot find Disk Management by right clicking start, do a search for it.
