[QUOTE="Juan Largo, post: 839678, member: 47345"] This isn't a Unix thing. If I'm not mistaken, the same thing would happen with Windows. If you chose to [b]replace[/b] 'ABC' with 'ABC', it will do exactly that -- replace it. To avoid this in the future, drag the 10 files from 'ABC' on the USB key into 'ABC' on the Portable Disk. The 10 files will be added to the 100 that are already there. [/QUOTE]
