hi guys, we are all set and done but the problem is we are running low on storage. we bought 2TB HDD to extend the storage. how can alfresco use it for its repository instead of saving the files in drive c?we also use webdav to save files directly to alfrescois there a way to search files or folder

you either need to move your content store to a different disk, use some sort of disk management utility or something like the aggregating content store.

is there any easier way like adding of harddrives and make alfresco include searching the new drives?

I would recommend using some type of SAN or NAS that you point your repository to. This is more manageable because you can always add new drives to your SAN and then allocate where you need to.

Alfresco does not have the logic to "look" for new disk space. It only lives where you point it to live.
