Well I am frustrated. I have 2 large hard drives, and 150,000 plus images one one 500mb drive, and mirror backups on the other, with several external drives that I backup to regularly.

I need a software solution for management of the database, catalog, rating, sorting etc of files. To date I have tried...

Picasa 3 - Out grew it very quickly

AC DSee Pro 2.5 - Fantastic but Crashes and Corrupts the database regularly

IDImager - Painfully slow, and gives up on the database cataloging with no reason and will not proceed.

Lightroom - Currently building the catalog database, 20hrs into it and is looking good.

Any insight or suggestions, much appreciated.
