Hi All,  
We have elasticsearch-2.3.3-1 installed on standalone host where it is running fine. From past few days the elasticsearch data filling my local 400GB drive, which can't be expanded, very fast and we are unable to delete old indices as new data arrives.

To run elasticsearch smoothly we planned attach a nfs/iscsi drive. Here the question arises that how can we accomplish this task that

1.) Data should be moved from old disk to new disk?  
2.) Is there anyway to add multiple data.paths? If yes, how the data will be written on both paths?

Please help us here.
