Yay!  My days of having to delete big files in order to download new ones are over, thanks to a generous gift from Orion.  It's a Maxtor 6Y160P0 disk drive in a Rocketfish enclosure.  (Maxtor is now part of Seagate.) 


Please click on the image to view its full size.

Thank you very much, Phil, for this excellent addition to Yomako's (my desktop computing system's) circle of electronic friends!  The new drive's name is Orion, by the way.  I'm very glad to have received this unexpected and welcomed gift.  No more download-screen-delete scenarios!  Plus, if and when the Thought Police come to get me, I can abscond with this remote drive and live happily ever after on Easter Island — or a location yet to be named.

It holds 160 gigabytes, 0235.  I'd ask Orion about this sort of thing if I were you, as he's the expert.

The Hard drive in the enclosure can be larger, you would just need to purchase a larger drive. It has an IDE interface which isn't as fast as a SATA one, but it was what I had handy. Smiley I had also put some files on there for him... Don't know if he watched any of them or not.

Yep.... That way you can use whatever drive is available and just dump it into it. I do that with laptop hard drives I have laying about. Real easy way to back your info up without having to shut down and hook the drive up yourself.
