I have an external 8TB hard drive I use for near-line photo storage.

When I created an index for this, I got the (error?) message: *Your index
seems very slow to build (About 2 hours and 10 minutes remaining). There
are 41,046 files and the system says it will take about 4 hours to
index the content.*

I don't know WHY it's going to take so long: There* folder contains 95%
images.* Unless Foxtrot is reading the metadata for each image. Is it?

The external drive has a USB-3 connection.

I'm running v7.0b4 build 2221.
