[QUOTE="mb300e, post: 1638446, member: 342473"] Here is another Newbie question. I want to change both hard drive names to something that makes more sense for my needs. Currently drive 1 is named "Yosemite 2TB" and drive 2 is named "2TB". What is the best way to change the names and is their any inherent risk in doing so. For instance will Time Machine know where to save the backups? Any other possible issues? I will want to change my user name too, but one thing at a time. I am keeping notes on any changes I do, can't rely on the memory so much these days. Thanks in advance, Peter B. [/QUOTE]
