[QUOTE="DMP21, post: 1900196, member: 410338"] Hi, (Happy New Year) Thanks for the reply and suggestion MacInWin I thought obviously the best precaution in case something went wrong is to make a full backup. The easiest way I thought to do this was use Disk Utility and create and image and then the next problem start, anything thoughts? I selected my APPLE SSD... drive and just kept the default names/settings and well basically the operation was cancelled... (I should ask here, if I should create a separate thread and link back to this topic since I'm going off topic somewhat), for now I'll continue and break it out later if need be, so thx. I've added the screenshots, note I was clear to make sure not to include the ST3000.... drive in the Disk Image selection... So again I'm stumped so will do some searching on our forum but if anyone's got some insight I'm happy to learn more... Thank in advance again. [HR][/HR] David [/QUOTE]
