| I've got a lot of documents saved in my computer, currently just about 12k. 3/4ths of them are ebooks and the rest are text files without various information. I'd like to know 2 things : 1. Is there any software specifically meant to organize PDF's eg: Tagging the contents and names of pdf files with search fecility etc. ( I don't want to use generic search utilites google or copernic search ) 2. Is there any software which can store all data in various categories (tech, tips , error codes etc) again with search and tag fecility. |

How did you create that many Partitions ? What's your HDD capacity ? You can try what I did. I have created Folders & subfolders & sub-sub folders inside each of those disks. | |

Rep Power: 6 | Back-up some of them in DVDs. Else you will lose all the valuable data if something happens to HDD. And decrease the number of partitions to 5-6. Put them to a common category. eg: Instead of Movies, Music, Photos all of them in 1 Disk named Multimedia. |
