greetings ..
i started using everything 1.5 alpha since it's appearance and i like it alot ..
my problem is that everything treats internal and external drives the same way by the same settings
i mean it indexes all the disks by the same settings, it's either index the disk or not
my needs and my suggestion is i want to index both filenames and it's properties for some selected disks "mainly the internal disks" and index only filenames for other disks "mainly the external disks"
as in many situation when i connect an external drive, all i need is searching for filenames to find and manage files, and indexing properties here will be an overload
the index profile iam looking foreword to is
index filenames and properties for all "internal disks"
index filenames only for some "external disks"
index filenames and properties for some "external disks"
my complain is that "indexing external disks properties" is very intensive process and also time consuming, that is in many cases not needed.
i hope i described my problem and my vision well.
sorry for any language mistakes, english is not my native tongue
thank you
