Here, maybe this screen shot will show my issue better.
I have a 100 MB FSRM quota on e:\staff\*
When I try and apply a higher 250 MB quota to e:\staff\quota 2 (my test
users home folder in the 'Staff' Share) I get the error in the screen
shot.

I am probably not saying it right.
I have the root share set to 5 GB for example. Set it to apply that quota
to all new folders then robocopy all the users home folders to that root.
So I have 600 home folders with this:
Jack 5 GB
Jill 5 GB
Spot 5 GB
I like Spot, so I want to hit his folder and give him 10 GB. When I try
and apply that FSRM quota to his folder it says there is already one in
place from the root and that I can't do it.

I'm not sure why you say you can't set a specific user quota even though
there's a different one for the root folder. We do this all the time with
Windows 2008 FSRM.

What is your storage solution? Is this just a new server with more
storage, direct attach, NAS/SAN?

Yep, can certainly do it that way...and that is on my list of possible
solutions. Not seeing anything third party that will fill the need
either. I
just hate to pigeon hole myself and get the partition size wrong. I
will need to reserve some space and make them dynamic.

If you're building the new storage for this environment, can you
create separate partitions for the home folders and for the shared
folders? That way disk quotas might be an option.

I am building new file storage, as you may recall from my previous
DFS/Cluster questions.
I am pondering the easiest way to do storage quotas. I will end up
with
600
people in one folder. A handful of users will get larger quota's.
FSRM looked good until I got into the details. I can auto populate
the root of the HomeFolderShare and hit everyone with the same quota.
But
trying
to then drill to a specific user and raise their quota it won't let me
as
it
already has a quota on it from the root. What I need is 'block
inheritance'
on quota's. I don't want to go back to disk quota's because there are
shared
folders on the same disk and I don't want the use of those to count
against
the user's quota.
Any ideas? Third party solutions?
