Default Calling X-Cart E-Goods Users: Scaling and Design

Hi guys,

Of those of you out there who use X-cart for selling downloadable products, has anyone had to deal with the challenges of scaling up to very large stores of product files? like Terrabytes of data? If so, how did you deal with this? did you separate out the /files directory where all the product files were on a separate server to the X-Cart store?

What about using two websites to source product files from the same central files store? Does anyone do this today?

My store is getting larger and also many are duplicates across two stores so was wondering what you guys were doing today. I am aware of some solutions out there but would be keen on some real world experiences.

Thanks guys
