[QUOTE="Tillymint, post: 1496479, member: 294512"] Hi Ian, No offence taken! I'm not computer savvy.....but if what you mean when you say the Ext HD needs to be mounted before deleting to the Trash.......My Ext HD is always connected to the computer and makes regular back-ups! I had a problem one day when it was unable to complete a B/U and I thought it might help if i deleted a few old ones!!! Silly for sure...... I know that now :) I have now cleared the Trash by running 'Trash It' and leaving the computer a few hours! It might however be benificial for me to run the Onyx app to check my Drives......do you think? Thanks very much for responding and your assistance. Tillymint [/QUOTE]
