After all the hard drive crashes over the past week we decided to get another disk for a back-up drive. I bought a 500 gig Lacie Big Disk USB drive to use as general data storage as well as for back-up data. Who would have thought I needed a half a Tera Byte drive, but it turns out I do. As a mater of fact, with the other drives on the system it brings the storage on the computer to almost a Tera Byte. Media storage is a good thing in the days of geek technology.
I have pulled all my hair out trying to setup my crazy server. I guess I am not getting it! I will have to call one of my IT geek friends to help me get this thing up and going. I want to set up a FTP server for the studio with this and maybe I can make it happen. More research to do on this subject.
I am really loving my new video iPOD! This thing is so cool and with 30 gigs of storage I am sure I will not be short on any type of entertainment. I can watch videos, movies, view my favorite photos, and not to mention the gobs of music I can stuff on the thing. The new iPOD is much smaller than last years model and has much better battery usage. I get about 14 hours on run time on it so far. I would only get about 10 hours on the old iPOD, so I am loving it!
