I’m wondering how to effectively keep track of the data I hoard. I’m almost at 80TB and currently use very basic folders structure to keep track of my data. I’m looking for something like a full text index maybe even a like a search engine for local data? Is there such a tool?
I just organize it properly in a folder structure that makes sense to me. No need to do anything more complicated if you’re organized.
I do this too, and avoid as much as possible having folders within folders, eg;
me-photos
me-music
me-documents
john-photos
john-music
work-documents
work-letter-templates
And so on. Sort by name.
