(Hopefully) Today i am going to get a 500 gb harddrive...now i don't need help with setting it up because all you do is plug it in, but are there any tips out there for external harddrives and what not?

If i were you I would chack what drive letter your PC gives it... if you dont have any others it'll prolly be E, but you flashdrive might make it go to F... Its usually smart to know what drive youre storing stuff on

omg yeah it's a really good thing to know what drive your external harddrive. when i went to save something on our new computer to the external harddrive it took me forever to find it...it ended up being on the J drive...weird

OK i dont have any external hard drives, but ive plugged in 2 diferent flash drives, and one time they were both in at the same time... then on a later day, I plugged one of them in and it automatically made it the F drive, and there was no E!!!!

Brian and sarah didnt have tips on there last two posts so wtf, y r u hassling me about it? and if so, heres a tip. Its not really that big of deal to have a topic on, because u can just buy a couple flash drives and then we can like sell them exclusively or something for original uncut versions or something like that, idk, lol
