T-Spect Le, << D o y o u think the SMARTDRV.exe might c a u s e t h e c o r r u p t i o n to the *.GIF ? >> There have been successful users of smartdrv over the last year and there have been some that were not. In a production environment, some would rather invest in more hardware rather than use additional compression techniques. 3DS users tend to tax their environments and an intermittant problem is hard to tolerate when it affects production. Trying to diagnose a failing machine is also difficult when you add the layer of possible errors during compression. I have heard of individuals who compress the drive that they keep the system's static files and executables. However, these individuals keep the swap file and images on an uncompressed drive. This seems to balance the two naturally. jonas[adesk]
