Vixy.net : Online FLV Converter : Download online videos direct to PC / iPod / PSP. It's free! Secrets: Backup storage options. When you don’t back up your data, you choose to live life on the edge. A hefty power surge, faulty software update, rampant virus, or Godzilla-like toddler—these are just a few of the things that could leave you with a computer that’s incapacitated or damaged beyond repair. But what sort of media should you use for storing your backups? You have numerous options, depending on your needs, preferences, and budget. Hard drives Hard drives provide fast backups and restores, and external drives can be moved offsite for safe storage.

But they can also be pricey. You can buy external drives with almost any combination of USB 2.0, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, and Serial ATA (SATA) interfaces. SATA, a high-speed bus technology, is the fastest of these interfaces, but to hook up an external SATA drive to your Mac, you’ll need to add an adapter using a PCI card (for Power Macs and Mac Pros), a PC card (for PowerBooks), or an ExpressCard (for MacBook Pros).

Inc. | WhatSize. GrandPerspective. Mac Gems: Byte breakdown. One of the questions I’m frequently asked as a Mac writer—and a question we see quite often in the Macworld forums —is, “My hard drive is getting full; how can I see which files are taking up all that space?” It’s an understandable question: Your hard drive started out with 50GB or so of free space, but now it’s down to 10GB and you have no clue as to why. (OK, so you’ve installed a few sizable software packages, and then there are all those MP3 files you ripped from your CDs and media you purchased from iTunes, and...) Although you could manually browse your drive, using the Finder’s “Calculate all sizes” view option, to see which folders are taking up the most space, then delve down into the biggest ones to search for large files and folders hidden inside, and so on, an easier approach is to use a utility that shows how your hard drive space is being used.

WhatSize One of my favorite such utilities is ID-Design’s free WhatSize 10.3.9 ( ). But my favorite option is Table View. Monolingual. Reggie Ashworth - AppDelete.
