I think that one of the reasons that my content scanning takes so long is that I have the samples spread over 5 hard drives. How many are you using, just so that I can do a proper comparison.

Well your content scanning isn't taking any longer than mine. I use 4 e-sata drives but they present to the Mac as a single Raid 0.For comparison the disc has all the DVD products installed plus the choir.
I had wondered about configuring them as J-BOD but I ran a test and found the RAID would stream 600 stereo VSL samples simultaneously and gives more capability for multitrack audio work. It also loads into RAM at about 350 MB/SEC for stuff like photoshop but unfortunately on my drives VSL stuff loads at about 10% of that speed.
