25 years ago I decided that the data is only useful to me, so why place 
it anywhere else than in my home directory? After all, that's where all 
my personal files reside, so why treat this data otherwise?

There I have plenty of room in a raid6 configuration, where the default 
location is much smaller, and populated by the infamous (well, with me 
at least) btrfs filesystem.

If I were convinced relocation would solve the problem, I could do that, 
but I have not seen that in the discussion so forth.

Anyway, thanks for thinking with me - I may not agree with you in 
everything, but be sure I appreciate your replies!

regards, Jogchum
