Hello all! Is there any info out there about Ami-File Safe and Ami-File Pro? What are the differences between them? They sound great but an ad said something about support for only one (1) hard drive. Is that both of them or just Safe? Thanks very much! Tom

Hi thomas, I use AFSpro for more than a month now, The difference between both versions is that the normal version only supports one harddisk an is limited to max 650MB, The AFSpro version has no limits, includes MultiUser Filesystem support, and an utilitie to convert the FFSpartitions to AFSpartitions without having to reformat them. regards, Juan Ferrin From Belgium with Autopilot

From the AFS FAQ: Q: What are the limitations of the Consumer version? A: The Consumer version can only be installed to a single partition, and that partition must be on a drive which is less than 650mb capacity (not a partition of 650mb, a drive size of 650mb). You cannot install Consumer onto a 10mb partition of a 700mb disk . You may have other drives and other partitions in your system. The Consumer version also contains no multi-user support. Dale L.
