I'm running out of holding disk space during the backup and I was wondering what I can do.  Here's my scenario

I've got a directory called Music that has 54GB on it.  My disk has 36GB free.  I have a second disk with 34GB free on it.  Can I have multiple holding disks?
If I give the disk list as each subdirectory under Music, will it need less holding space?  Should I break up the backup jobs into several ones?  Should I just buy a bigger disk?

Thanks!
