UNIX ?
Mike,
You logic makes some sense, but I do the same thing by assigning
logical drives to directories on the real drive. There's DH0:, but under it
are several "xx:" logicals as the result of ASSIGNs. Performs the same
function of "smaller drives" without the overhead.
If you HD controller trashes the drive…I suspect you'll have to
restore everything in any event.
BTW, since I've got multiple drives, I backup some of the logical
directories on the small drives onto the larger HD as a quick way to recover if
needed. For example, that's how I handled those "close calls" I talked about
in my previous message. Dumped the small drive onto the large drive, replaced
the HD and restored from the large drive. Real quick.
