Adding storage space to wwwroot on a web server?

[zag]

I've got an IIS web server that is running out of space and I need to add more.

 

Adding a disk is easy but is there an easy way to point the wwwroot folder to the new disk while keeping the existing structure?

 

Basically I'd like to keep c:\inetpub\wwwroot and add a new d:\inetpub\wwwroot\media

 

Whats the best way to do it?

Is the /media a folder for media storage, or some media studies website/webpages?

 

You can add a new virtual directory to IIS that points to d:\inetpub\wwwroot (or wherever you want), but that might have implications if you're embedding images/videos into a page on one website (c:) that are stored on another.

 

I'd probably move the whole wwwroot to a bigger D: drive and either redirect the default c: website to it, or leave the default website empty and disabled, and create a new website for the whole of the content on d:
