Multiple Hard Drives
I have added another 2tb drive and want to use this for event storage. I normally do this with raid but this box is 12.10 ubuntu and no mdadm. Plus its live. Can i add it somehow?

Re: Multiple Hard Drives
You can't "add" another drive to ZM's storage in the sense of topping it up. There needs to be a single point, which by default is in /var, is easy to move to another drive or resource mounted locally, or if you needed serious storage, raid would indeed be the answer.
You can move zm's mount point by following this;
