[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1661879, member: 204485"] I think you are correct in that it is an indexing problem. You have two internal drives, if you were using one external drive and one internal drive you would probably not encounter these problems because the external has a different volume title. In your case I assume both SSD and HDD volumes are seperate, like partitions on the Macintosh HD. I can think of no way to fix your problem other than to suggest you place your media on an external HD. As it is you have an effective work around time consuming as it may be. At the end of the day what you have done (storage wise) is a creative modification but not how the MBP was designed to function and like all stop gap methods it has it's drawbacks. Others in this forum may have other suggestions. You did not mention how much total storage you now have or what OS you are using. Also what configuration did you use when installing the Data Doubler SSD? Did you use the SPAN setup to combine the two drives or as an individual drive? I am by no means an expert on this hardware but I thought there were a couple of ways of setting the configuration. I'm only guessing but if spotlight were to see both drives as one it may solve your problem. [/QUOTE]
