Hi Jane
2. I also have been looking at online backup sites, in addition to a physical
back up. Carbonite looks good to me, but I am not familiar with the pros and
cons of online. I would value your opinion.

I have two 1TB hard drives that are in my main computer. One is a Hitachi,
and the other is a Western Digital. Never had any problems with either of
them. I've had them for more than a year, and the computer, including both
hard drives are have been running 24/7.
I would be a little worried about
OK. Sorry I didn't mention that it's a 933 MHz chip. The chip is sold as
an *Apple MPU 1.25 GHz Dual Processor. What I really need to know is if
it will work with my 2002 Quicksilver. Sorry for the confusion.

I find it amazing, considering this is a Mac oriented group that no one
mentioned LaCie drives.
I have found them to be robust but a bit pricier. Just one person's
experience is limited data, but I felt the omission to be glaring.

If you want a ready to go solution I recommend OWC's external drive enclosures.
Personally I prefer to put my own together using enclosures that have Oxford

I should have mentioned that Western Digital's enterprise drives are warranted for
5 years and have a good reputation. They cost a bit more, but worth it in my

This is driving me a bit nutz...
Quick Look is perusing too much. Eventually it runs into files that
make it, or QTKit, etc, crash. Then launchd restarts it, and the
crash cycle continues.
How does one tell Quick Look to NOT peruse things?
Exclude by file type? Exclude by directory tree?
The Apple 1.25GHz Dual G4 Processor will only work in the Mirror Drive
Door PowerMac models, not your Quicksilver.
You should look for a Sonnet 1.8GHz upgrade, or there was a company
that made a 2.0GHz upgrade for the Quicksilver, but they are extremely
hard to find.
