In re-reading my post above, I realized that one statement is not very clear. By adding the external drive enclosure, what I meant when I talked about adding a second drive and splitting my collection is that I was thinking about getting a second removable drive and swapping them to play different types of music. Not the most convenient thing to do, but at least I could keep growing my collection that way and eventually have two or three hard drives sitting by the Rio Central, ready to plug into the drive enclosure (one at a time)...Oh well, thought I'd clear that up....
