Change X and Y values for the meters for for the second HDD.

X values should equal to those of the meters of first HDD, but Y values should have about about 20 added to them.

You could also add a line break as a string meter.

[MeterLineBreak]
Meter=String
Text=#CRLF#

There are universal variables: (Look towards the bottom)

[Edit]
If you add the #CRLF# to the beginning of all the meters of the second part of the skin, it will work.
I just had the right idea - just not in the right place.

Don't think it'll work with the bars though... Sorry for the misinformation!

I haven't tested it, but wouldn't it create a blank line?
Like, put it between the two parts of the skins, and it should be like pressing enter on a document, and start a new line.

I'll test it now.

Thanks for your prompt reply!
I have already tried to do it, but after that I only see half the statistics of the first HDD!

Make sure you're only changing Y values of the section ==Meter 2==.
