I suggest to allow more than one folder that the backend could search for game files. Games are bigger and bigger so it would be useful to distribute the games on more than one hard disk.

Thanks !

There's no need. Just mount your second drive as a subfolder of /files as a docker volume. Like /files/disk2.

Or if you're not using docker, just use symlinks.

I tried with symbolic links (using this) and putting a symbolic link to another drive as a subfolder of my original /files folder and it doesn't work. It is ignored when scanning the games. Any hints on how to make it work ?

do I understand correctly you are not using docker?

Yes I am using Docker but I don't use a Docker volume for the game files, I use a windows path directly instead. Anyway, I checked a little bit and I don't understand how to point to 2 different drives using a Docker volume. Can I do this in the Docker Desktop interface or it's via the compose configuration file ?

show me your compose file, I'll show you how to edit it.
