[AT] Update - Laptop hard drive

[charlie hill]

Yeah Dean, that's what I thought but I just don't know how to do it.
Never bothered to figure it out.

Chalie,

I'm sure he can use different folders for each computer.

Glad it worked out for you Mike.
How are you going to back up 3 computers to that 2 TB drive?
Do you partition the drive with a different virtual drive for each or
what?  I'm very ignorant on these issues.

Just wanted to give an update on my laptop hard drive. I ran every check
suggested, and my hard drive checked out fine, so I decided to wipe the
drive and reinstall windows 7, its much snappier now.  I have all my
files backed up to Carbonite, so I thought reinstalling would be a snap.
I double checked to make sure all my important files were there, and
backed up, and they were.
I wiped the drive on the 17th, and reinstalled Windows on the morning of
the 18th, and then started my back up. As of today I am only at 61% on
the backup, with pictures being the big hang up. I took Charlie Hills'
advice and bought a 2TB external hard drive, and will use that for my
back ups from now on. It will pay for itself in less than a year, and I
will be able to back up my computer, and my 2 daughters computers on one
drive. I have to believe USB 3.0 is faster that my download speed.
