Be careful, if you turn the case fan off, you'll need more than a nice name for your hard drive.


What a waste of good charcoal, You really can't destroy your data that way.

In the morning, everything will be a blur,


It is the morning, and everything is a blur, and I'm getting ready to go shooting, and its snowing, and I'm going to have to walk up and down some hills, and then go to the pub for lunch and drinks, and then walk up and down some more hills, and and and...... Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. (see below)

Adrian's new camera:

really - yes, it is.

I have 9 hard drives and I give them obscure names or name them after individuals. I've recently carried out a icon and renaming process - adding an image next to the named HDD. Like Barry, I'm considering a suitable character name for one of my HDD. I may call one "YORKY" or "YORKPUD" as a tribute HDD. I will add a suitable icon. All to keep "BIGGY" HDD happy.

Contents is another matter. I store my video in Date order.

To add an icon carry out the following.
Open you HDD > Create a new folder and name it "autorun"
Insert to the HDD the attached autorun.inf
Now create a suitable icon in an image editor to 32x32 pixels and name it, with an ico extension. see attached example
Place the icon into the autorun folder which you have on the HDD (Hard drive).
Use NotePad and open the autorun.inf file and alter the address/change the icon name >save the inf file.
When you reboot the icon changes will be applied.
