Well it's been a while since i have posted here but i know when there is something i can't figure out i can get the answer here so here goes...

i have multiple HD's on one of my pc's i use it as a server more or less....
all the HD's have Movies in them labeled in Alphabetical order..but as i am filling up my HD's and i start to fill the next one i add new movies in alphabetical order and its hard to keep track of what movies i have because now im going back and forth between 4 drives just to check if i already have a movie on there...

so what i want to do is create a folder that i can open and it shows all the data from all the drives in one window. so i can see everything on all the HD's in one windows without going back and forth checking each drive one by one..

for example most media centers (XBMC,Boxee)
have the option to add multiple directories to one path and it shows all the contents of the directories in one long list. i want that same thing but in windows explorer.

Edit**
i know windows 7 has the libraries function but it still seperates them by drive instead of just showing the whole long list of all the files.
