Okay, I'm still learning about this external hard drive. If I have designs in my computer, how do I move them to the external hard drive? I want everything together there. THANKS :O)

you will do a copy and paste to your new hard drive if you need more help I would be glad to help you do not try to move them copy instead that way if anything happens they are still in your C drive after you check that they have moved properly you can delete off your C drive. always make sure you have saved a back up of your designs so if your drivers ever die for any reason you have them on disk, cd, dvd or flash drive which ever is best for you.

Do you unplug them? I have been backing up on CD's also, but I have been thinking if I unplug it when I'm not using it, it should help - right? *

nope so that is how i learned my lesson i do now
I will be more faithful at burning mine. I haven't been leaving it on, or plugged in thinking that would help. But now I'm noticing that I have things saved on my computer that I don't have on the ExHD. I must be a slow learner. I'm trying. Thanks for your help. :o)
send yourself a reminder in your email set it to every week that way it helps to remember
