Ok, I can hear everybody laughing because this isn't what I said I
was going to get!!! I took back the headphones; I decided not to get
a bluetooth module because we don't really need bluetooth on Rachel's
computer yet; I didn't get a printer because I didn't think I had
researched it thoroughly enough and thought I might have to spend
more money than I have at the moment. so I got a firewire external
hard drive so I can have all the audio files available to me that
were on the linux box I'm giving away.
The drive connected and plugged in and the "EXTERNAL" icon is on the
desktop and I can find it using terminal under /volumes. It's
supposed to be optimized for the Mac, but can I go ahead and create
directories and put files on the drive, or do I need to check in disk
utility to make sure a journaled filesystem is running, etc? Also, I
notice there's a spare firewire port on the external drive. What do
people usually end up using that for?
