But, you have to be aware that each year you need/should load the new version over the previous in order to keep all the files. I have 20 years of files. As a result that external HD quickly overflows

The BIAB-VST requires the entire BIAB program loaded in order to run. I suspect that makes it the largest VST on Earth.

By the way, this is how I manage the needed space for BIAB. C and F are High speed SSDs (I put F in a couple days ago).
