HDD Folder oranization
enine | Feb 21 2006
How is everyone organizing their electronic data? I started out years ago with MS Outlook and hit the 2G limit early on so I ended up having to archive data monthly which resulted in a folder structure based around monthly archives like this: 2006 So I started following this structure and would store other files such as bank statements, pictures, invoices, etc in those folders. Problem now is finding anything I have to wait for a search to crawl through all those folders or remember when I did something or have some sort of index to it. I usually end up just hunting through the various years and months looking for what I want rather than keeping an index up to date so I'm looking for better suggestions as to how to organize inportant files. 25 Comments

I wouldn't have any real gripe putting in a new drive if I didn't have to take my Powerbook apart to do so. With my old Gateway laptop (waaaay back in the day) it was simple: remove one screw, unplug old drive, plug in new drive, replace. Not so with Macs. I never have undstood the hype over Apple's hardware, things like this where they are behind everyone else. Its almost a given standard now that hdd's are on removable trays to make support faster » POSTED IN:
