[QUOTE="baggss, post: 407162, member: 6762"] Dragging the Macintosh Hard Drive (the boot Drive) to the trash won't do anything since you can't unmount the boot drive while OSX is running from it. Even Disc Utility won't unmount the boot drive while the system is running. This is also why you can only "Verify" the drive when running Disc Utility from it and not "Repair" the drive. No, they are not. Read the thread. Finder is an Application, the Hard Drive is the Hard Drive not an Application. [/QUOTE]
