Little space COULD slow down OSX... I wouldn't go below 10% free space (or 6GB in your case), that should be the minimum. > I talked to someone who said my hard drive may be about to > crash. Usually, slowing down is not a sign of impeding HD death. Strange noises (tak-tak-tak, click-clack...) are. But a good backup is ALWAYS a good thing to do. ;-) > He also said the TV shows I've bought from iTunes could be > slowing it down. I can't see why those files could slow down a computer. No file, on its own (I mean, not running/playing), could slow down the computer. Unless - as I said above - those files filled the HD, leaving little or no free space. -- 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.
