Teej, Thanks for the reply... There are no stupid questions. You make an excellent point, however, there really are two physical hard drives:
My primary drive is: Seagate ST3120026AS 114439 MB SATA NTFS My Second drive is : Seagate ST3400633AS 381552 MB SATA NTFS Both are Seagate, and SATA with NTFS formatting but different capacities.
