If HFS+ journaling was the problem then you'd see it all the time since (I'm guessing) the boot drive on the iMac uses the journaled version of OS Extended. (I would expect that is how Apple ships it). I would think the problem is with something else. Is there an app which starts when the system boots which might be trying to catalog/scan the (video?) files on the externals? -irrational john -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
