What file-system and block size are you using on the HDD? I see that the twin is HFS formatted, but you don't explicitly say the one you used is HFS. I think this is probably more relevant than the number of files. Same questions for the USB stick. Steve. -- SteveEast Home: 3*SB3, 1*Boom, 4*Radio running 7.4.1 on Acer Aspire easyStore H340 WHS.
