Greetings all,

Since I've maxed out the hard drive of my iMac (G3) desktop running Jaguag
(10.2.8), I hooked up a new 160 GB external drive.  I dragged most of the
space-hogging stuff to it, but the problem is:  occasionally, the icon
doesn't appear on the desktop & doing a file>find doesn't locate it.  So I
have to turn off the external & then back on, which usually does the trick;
only a handful of times have I had to restart the whole thing to get it to
appear...This makes me a bit nervous, since the only copy of my music files
& such is on the external drive.  I don't want to back up the files to my
laptop, as that space is getting limited, etc....Is there something I need
to set/reset to avoid this from causing future concern/potentially more
serious issues?

TIA,
Cathy
