I "normally" work from one drive and when finished, "move" the film-roll to another drive for storage, but I can later access and make changes if necessary. I loose no information, but my file structure at this point is singular and definitely not complex, year-month-day by activity (primarily youth soccer). And my storage drive is no nfs. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
