I don't disagree with buying an external hard drive for backup. My first
purchase (and cheapest) would be a 2nd internal hard drive for your
computer. I have two hard drives on mine, the second holds all "My
documents" with data files.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Legacy on Portable Hard Drive
Yesterday, in the midst of scanning multi-page tiff images I drew the
dreaded message -- "you are running out of hard disk space." Obviously, I
have to do something for my image files. I plan to buy a portable hard disk
to hold scanned images to use with my laptop. My question is. . . if I want
to link these files to my Legacy individuals, should I put my Legacy files
on the portable drive as well? Or, will it slow things down too much? Would
I run the application itself from the portable, too; or, leave the app on my
main C Drive, and just put the data on the portable?
I should say that I am using these images with a database program, and also
with Clooz.
My current Legacy file is tiny, still in its infancy, and I plan to migrate
to Version 7 as soon as possible.
Any comments gratefully accepted,
Denise
