Ok, thanks Dave. OK, I know I have asked too many questions already so I will stop soon. Just a few more so I get this right and don't screw it up. Thanks.
Q1 - Is reformatting a hard drive hard on it. Does it wear it out a little every time you reformat a drive? On the G-Drive Website it says: "Your G-Drive external hard drive is formatted at the factory for use with Mac OS. Just plug it in and it will mount on the desktop. The G-DRIVE is formatted at the factory HFS+ with Journaling and is Time Machine ready right out of the box!" Q2 - I plan to have the drive as "one" partition so do I need to format the drive again using "Disc Utility" or is it best to run disc utility anyways and partition the drive? Q3 - After mounting the drive on the desktop and pressing (Option + I) here's what it said. Why has it used 240.6 MB? Is this the normal amount used when you format a drive. Seems like a lot to me. G-Drive 1TB Capacity: 931.19 GB Available: 930.96 GB Used: 240.6 MB ________ LIVE SEX Last edited by Paint Guy; 09-18-2011 at 02:47 PM. |
