Well first there was the 160gb as that seemed logical for the 120gb desktop. Then came the laptop (30gb). Then that filled. Then I found a good price on a 320gb. Then, well, you know.... LOL The 160gb is pretty much primary pix storage, along with an old bootable OSX partition which I should update! I have a 4gb thumb drive. Back in the day I had scanned negatives on CD's. I tried to put them on DVDs when I got the FW800 but the time to read the directory was horrific so I pretty much gave up on that. > >Gee, You got the "Official" training. ;-) > >Getting it 'In the trenches', sometimes means two or three cycles of >'Disaster', before the light finally clicks ON. I had good teachers. :) Knock on wood, I never lost anything at work. I have lost a few things here but before I had my externals. I'll have questions on bootable clones for another time too, I know that is something I am lacking at the moment. Thanks!
