[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1591681"] I suspect that what is really happening is not that OSX is "helping" but that the application accessing the database expects it to be in a certain place, but you've moved it to an external drive, which is still trying to spin up when the access takes place, so the application (not OSX) "recreates" the database where it was originally designed to be. So if you take Nick's advice and move the database back to the internal drive the problem will go away. The externals will still lag a bit spinning up, but it won't affect the application you have running at boot time. [/QUOTE]
