[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 781297, member: 75318"] H Rob I would just let MP install to its default location on the C: drive. It could avoid any potential problems with plugins etc. Re the drives; I can only use my own experience. I have a number of drives in use and this is just to allow for a decent amount of storage space.

For TV Series I use another 2Tb drive and the MyTVSeries plugin and finally for music & pictures I have another 2Tb drive.
