[QUOTE="daniel2218, post: 1154094, member: 182363"] Great points, again. File sizes aren’t that big (less than 2-3 megs), but they are spread out over a bunch of folders, so transferring them back and forth would be problematic. Two questions: I thought from the previous post that FTP’ing meant transferring the files (by using Transit or some other application). But above you are saying that you can mount an FTP drive and the file stays put and accessed remotely? Second, regarding Dropbox, I didn’t know you can have it “look” at a part of your external drive. Is that some special configuring? I don’t remember seeing that. It sounds like one of these two options will probably work out. Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
