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.

I reckon as a rank amateur I could personally give your lot a good run for their money.

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.

Used the "quick wash" feature to get some urgently needed laundry done. It's 4am, the stuff I need desperately should be dry in 5 hours when I'll need it.
