I usually keep ongoing series' newest episodes in my Downloads folder. And when I am finished I check the episode for CRC errors one extra time and then transfer it to my 1TB external. It's a pain to watch many episodes from my 1TB so I usually transfer all the episodes I want to watch so I don't have to keep it on while watching. I'd like it to keep working for me for a few years. ;)


And as for my 1TB organisation system: (click to show/hide)Nothing special really. I really can't arse myself to keep things in "watched" and "watching" folders and same with "ongoing", "incomplete" and "complete".

If you stall anime as much as me then it's a good thing to have a MAL or AP account to keep track of which episode you're on. I usually spend 5 min every week updating it and adding new shows I am watching.

Anyway, this is the way I do it, dunno if it's the most efficient, but I prefer it this way.

Enzedder:
I sort it into 3 drives. One for downloading and seeding. One for watched series. One for unwatched series. From there its really just scanning through with your brain remembering which you have watched.

I also use MAL updater. I have it running in the background and its linked to my folders and online anime list. All I do is click 'Play Next' and it finds it and plays the next episode that I am up to. It then updates my list accordingly.

nstgc:
I have a single 1.6 TB partition to hold anime and another smaller partition to use for anime I'm currently downloading. As soon as its been downloaded I move it to the larger partition. This keeps the larger drive from becoming fragmented. It also reduces the amount of wear on the drive, thus reducing the chances of it failing (typically my archival drive is powered down).

Shows that I am currently fallowing (that have not been finished) are left in the archival partion inside its own folder. For those that have been finished I have a directory for
manga
anime that I have not finished, but have completely downloaded
anime that I have finished watching and have completely downloaded
"limbo" for anime that I don't want to delete, but don't feel like completing
a directory for OVAs and movies
a directory for trailers
and a directory for AMVs

Additionally, the directory for anime that has been finished and watched has the sub directories.
0-D
E-I
J-N
O-S
T-Z

Within each of those are directories for each series. For anime that have discrete seasons there is a sub directory S1, S2, ...

Limbo isn't well organized. Movies aren't given their own directory, but OVAs are. The trailer directory has no organization.

Thats pretty much it.

For for which episode I've watched, I just use my memory if it hasn't been too long. If its been a while I tend to watch a bit of the beginning of the show to see if I've seen it before. Searching takes a minute at most.

Where can I download that?


(click to show/hide)But yeah  +1 to that  and pin MPC to your taskbar > right click  and it shows your most recent views.  Been too long since then?  Start removing stuff from the list, it goes back quite far.
