Time for an update - 13,007 albums - looks impressive but a bit misleading as not all "albums" are full. More accurately:
Artists = 5879
tracks = 179,427
Total storage 5907 GB
Free storage 858 GB
About time to stop collecting? Maybe.

Yes you should, and enter the next level of the M Matrix. Hope you have less problems than I did at this stage. 57 resets and 22 albums could not be backed up (never managed to ascertain which 22 of 4252 were the culprits) 72 hours total time. However, I suspect PICNIC effect (Problem In Chair Not In Computer) Let us know how you get on.

MC200 stats are now:

Artists = 329
Albums = 562 (Hector - you were so correct)
Tracks = 6482
Total storage 491 GB
Free storage 234 GB

for which I have taken a back-up.

The back-up took 6 hours and 25 minutes (41 seconds per album) using a Windows XP laptop connected to an ethernet switch, to which the MC200 was also connected, all wired. The archive was stored on a Western Digital 'My Passport' 1TB device.

Storage used was 164 gigabytes or 292 megabytes per album.

On my 2x 1 TB MD600 in RAID1:
Artists: 1325
Albums: 1283
Tracks: 13524

Total storage: 984 GB
Free storage: 570 GB
MP3 off

Do you see something strange here?
I have more artists than albums. How is this possible? When I run my own perl script, I can see 573 artists. Plus several compilation albums that might add up to this. But how is this possible?

The albums and tracks countings are correct.
