Multiple volumes and multiple drives.

#2
Congratulations on your decision to delve into the world of NAS for your multimedia needs! To address your query, the Asustor AS7110T offers the flexibility to create multiple volumes, each spanning across multiple drives if needed. In the scenario you described, where your movie collection exceeds the capacity of one volume and spills over to another, rest assured that you can still access your movies seamlessly.

Programs like Plex Media Server can indeed recognize and catalog movies stored across multiple volumes or drives. As long as you set up Plex to scan all relevant locations where your movies are stored, it will aggregate them into your media library, ensuring easy access and organization.

When configuring your NAS, consider creating separate volumes for different types of media (e.g., one for movies, another for TV shows, etc.) to streamline management and optimize performance. Additionally, keep an eye on your storage usage to anticipate when to expand or create new volumes to accommodate your growing collection.
