Had a bunch of recordings fail due to lack of disk space. Found one freak recording that was 125GB and made the wife go through and she found 200GB of stuff she didn't need 
I had setup a second recordings folder on another drive but you can only set it to choose the drive with the most space - What about having a failover that it will record to if there is too little space on the primary.
My main recording space is on a 2 drive stripe to help it cope with multiple records symeltaneous without throughput issues. The OS drive has 700GB free but being a single drive I only want to use it in the even of otherwise missing recordings.
I'm not too bothers as TV is so bloody crap these days there are only about two series on Free to air TV I actually want to watch but happy wife happy life
