Windows 7 Libraries question

[bledd]

I use libraries for my Media Centre

I plan on using two e-sata drives with my media centre, I'll add certain folders of these drives to the library

Will it automatically know to re-add them to the library if I eject the drives when the pc is on, then put them back in at another time?

As far as I know, the location record will remain in the library until you remove it. I use an external drive for my music and havent had any problems moving it around from machine to machine without having to constantly re-add the relevant folders.

So yes it should re-add your media to the library when you plug the drive in automatically

As long as it stays with the same drive letter (if ejected and you plug in a new drive which steals that latter for example) then yeah as above

Cool cool, I'll assign X and Y to my drives in question

When you shove an external drive in to W7 with media on, it places a sysvol folder on the drive. This will repopulate the libraries for you
