Hi Michael,
I do not understand, please explain.
The plan is to use "One file per table", move the database directory to
a separate disk and establish a link to the directory from the previous
location. What locking problem do you see in Unix or Windows?
Thanks, Reuven

simply do do work effectively (or at all) across such mounts.

Option 1:
Assuming you do not need the databases to interact with each other I
would setup two instances of mysql with separate datadirectories. This
should make your back process easier. Read:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/windows-create-option-file.html
Option 2:
You could symlink (or NTFS junction for windows using a tool like
winbolic link) the data directories for the individual databases to
different locations.
As for "One file per table" I don't think that is what you want/need.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/multiple-tablespaces.html
"Using multiple tablespaces can be beneficial to users who want to
move specific tables to separate physical disks..." and you want to
move the whole database.
