Hi all ~ Been using a Maxtor and a Fantom hard drive to back up files. These are not bootable, so I have always assumed in case of a major OS malfunction I would lose much of my user configuration, but what the hey. Retrospect does a good job backing up what's new and changed. My question is, if I just dragged files to the hard drive (I actually do this to make my own archives, old files are loaded onto both drives and then deleted from my computer) am I going to have permissions problems? I haven't had any so far.
What are the issues here? Was considering Time Machine but my brain balked at the $300 price tag. Got the Airport Express Extreme though on account I wanted to network the G4 with the new iMac in order to get both on my cable modem. (G4 did not have a wireless card it turns out).
