That agrees with what Tim presented at the meeting I attended. However, saying "keep all your files on one drive" might lead some to think those files are vulnerable should that one drive fail. Tim, as anyone with a lick of smarts would know, says that one drive should be backed up to other drives or places.
And what is the rationale for keeping all your files on ONE drive ? I keep my files on several drives (one would not be big enough).

But, with the availability of relatively inexpensive multi-terrabyte external drives, getting all your files on one drive is not difficult. With all your files on one drive, you can back up all files at one time. Backing up the drives is the most protective action you can take.
I know you can set a back-up protocol to back up multiple drives, but the one-drive system works for most people.
I know one fellow who uses multiple drives, but he's heavy into stock photography and keeps all of his background files on one drive. He's got terrabytes of skies and other stock backgrounds.
