Performing 3-pass random ASCII character overwrite of a 1TB drive using TechTool Pro on the MacBook Air. This may take some time…..
Reconfiguring external HDs to suit upcoming 1TB iMac: drives previously used with 256 GB MBP. A 2TB drive partitioned for storage backup & Time Machine has become storage only. Time Machine duties will be covered by a new 3 TB drive. A 1TB storage drive will become the new clone of the 1TB iMac.
A classic case of excess packaging: just got three boxes of antibiotics, each containing a strip of 7 tablets. Should have used just 1 box.
@streakmachine I reckon as a rank amateur I could personally give your lot a good run for their money.
@joanna Looking closer at the screenshot, I hope the "Turbo Boost to 3.5 Hz" is a misprint. I can't envisage anything that slow!

@kdfrawg The cheque has cleared, the item has been ordered, avail for pickup in 10 days from my local Apple Store because it's not a standard configuration.

If I ever get the G5 PowerMac going again (dud video card) I could use the largest of those three drives in an adaptor plate in that as a second drive, it uses SATA connections.
Three sub-750 GB portable HDs used for Time Machine backups and clones of the 2011 MBP won't be much use on the replacement iMac cos it'll have a 1 TB Fusion drive. Can't use them in my G4 laptops, all three of those have IDE HDs.
