Example: Let you have 8 Mb cache in 16 cache dirs (00 .. 0F) on one disk
and want to add another 8 Gb disk

1. Mount second disk
2. Stop squid
3. Move 8 dirs to second disk
4. Make symlinks to emulate 8 moved dirs on their old location
5. Increase cache size in squid.conf
6. Start squid

here is ls of my cache disk storage:

As you see storage is splitted on 4 disks
