HDD's attached to me, but they are sleeping right now, so I know they are there, and available, but I won't wake them up unless the user decides to actually pick one of them as the save location."It seems kind of odd that the computer would have to reconfirm that a drive is still attached, even though the user has not indicated that s/he wants to even use that drive at the moment.Anyway, thanks for the explanation.</blockquote>
