Re: [CentOS] When should LVM be used?

I understand the advantages when using a server, but my personal computer is a Small Form Factor Dell GX270 with only one hard drive slot.  But I'll look closer into LVM options when I install on the bigger hard drive. Thanks.

Those examples actually came from situations I faced with a home PC. :)

I had a small VIA Epia based PC with a 40GB internal drive that I had to expand because it didn't have enough space. I added a couple of external USB enclosures and expanded that way. Later on I ended up migrating the same data off the external enclosures and onto a QNAP I'd acquired because the USB enclosures were too small.
