I am not using a nice raid array :)

As you can see by my rc file:

egtb
tbpath=D:\Tablebases;E:\Tablebases;F:\Tablebases;G:\Tablebases
adaptive 800K 24M 192M 24M 96M
cache=32M
resign 6
book on
show book
exit

egtb = 7.05gb (3,4,5man bases)
D:\ = 197.9 GB of 6 man
E:\ = 249.1 GB of 6 man
F:\ = 249.6 GB of 6 man
G:\ = 298.7 GB of 6 man

That is running on my PIV 2.0 Ghz, 2GB ram computer, and takes 93 seconds to
start up (I just timed it).

I have more hard drives, but I don't have space for them in the case :(
