Tom, >> Seems a shame not to be able to use doublers when they do such good compression on dwg's. Wellll…I've been using AddStor's SuperStor on one machine to compress _everything_ except a Windows permanent swap file and have had no problems, even with 90 meg 3DS swap files on the compressed drive. So compression is not totally out of the question. My average compression works out at 1.9 to 1. It might slow the system a little, but nothing I've been able to perceive compared to uncompressed drives. John
