I just got around to installing the app that Gordon suggested to all of us
the other day: Clean My Drive External Drive. Wow! This thing's simply
brilliant! It's really not got an interface to it worth writing home about,
but for what the app is supposed to do, cleaning off all that gunk that is
put on external drives by OSX like the .spotlight folder or the .7st folder
or whatever it's called, the .trashes folder etc, it does a heck! of a job!
Another thing about it I noticed when I hit vo+space on it from the menu
extras area is that I can even eject all volumes that are mounted all at one
given time. I thought that was really really cool! Well? So much for me
using Mountain then I guess. This does all that utility did, plus even
cleans the garbage, so, yeah. Needless to say, I'm quite impressed. And
for the app being freeware, you can't beat it!
So, again, thanks Gordon, for such an awesome recommendation. If you have
any more, please do share them.
Chris.
