I guess if I actually make any changes in this area, it might

use a big disk.

Sorry, but this would be very bad.

Just think of a single file system corruption on this big file system. I
have 2 TB of recordings and I have them placed on many different
filesystems in a way so that if one filesystem is lost I still will have
the others.
The I assume you have one /video directory into which you have
linked or mounted all your various disks, haven't you?
In that case, dropping the linking feature of VDR wouldn't hurt
you - you wouldn't even notice...
