Sources? - ArieS - 2020-02-01

I finally have some time to upgrade all my boxes to Leia!
I have about 12 hard drives with Movies and TV Shows.
Right now they are all set up as different source.
So I have about 10 movie sources and 7 TV show sources.

Should I still set it up that way or should I just make 1 source for movies and 1 source for tv shows?
I'm using MySQL, if that makes a difference...

Just wondering what will be faster when scanning for new content, cleaning library, exporting and most important, browsing thru my library.

Thanks!

The database server would be fast enough for any operations. But perhaps keeping separate sources is better simply because you have 12 separate harddrives, in view of cleaning stuff.
Or perhaps start using 2-3 big(ger) harddrives instead?

I already have a couple of 14TB discs Smile
I'll keep doing multiples sources.

Thanks!
