Hi all, One quick addition to Jane's helpful suggestion of using Get Info to find out the space remaining on a hard drive: if you are using external hard drives you should either be able to find the drives in the Finder sidebar or you can use Command-Shift-C to put yourself into Computer view. For Windows user, this is like "My Computer", and will show attached hard drives under Finder.
