Data

Imagine for a second that you have six hard drives filled with Data. Some are four terabytes. Others are one terabyte each, and you’ve already sorted personal videos and photos from other media files. Each drive is moved to its own folder Two Terabyte Seagate has gone from being a drive to a folder. Bob 2017 has also become a folder, rather than a drive. Samantha 2018 is also a volume, rather than a drive.

Yesterday while freeing space on a number of drives I found that one failed to mount so I had to use the recovery tools in disk utility to get it to mount. The process took a few minutes. Once this was done I decided to move all data from that drive to a safer place. In the process I came across the frustration of backup.backup, or some similarly named folder. It’s the time machine backup folder.
