    Default Another Computer Question.

    Have been cleaning out computer hard drive as it is getting full.
    Took out a ton of stuff but still have 175 gigs to go. H drive is 250 gigs.
    Burned all photos on discs so that helped a bit.
    There are two hard drives that were transferred over to 'puter when upgrading.
    If I take them out, a lot of stuff may no longer work. Both these drives come to a total of 100 gigs.
    Would putting them on an external hard drive be a good idea?
    Not sure what to do. Help.

    For my home/portable recording studio I have an older Mac laptop with a small hard.
    I have 2 external hard drives, master and a back up. When I want to bring music to a better studio I just bring the external drives.
    You could keep the operating system on the internal and save all pics to the external set up .
    I feel it is better to keep the 'good' stuff external and burn stuff to disc as well.

    Decided to get a larger hard drive, it's cheaper.

    My wife does photography and had to get a huge hard drive recently.
    She just backs up photos on cd's.
    She frowns when I go near her computer.
