Will a 512 mb travel drive be able to save 11 folders?

If the folders are smaller than 512mb, yes (or whatever room the drive actually uses).\n\nIf the folders are empty, yes for sure.  Do this to check the combined folder size, hightlight all the folders (Click and drag to include them all or highlight them all another way) Right click on 1 of the folders and select properties.  It should give you the file size of all the folders that way.

The only suggestion I can think of off hand is to check and make sure the formatting is correct on the drive.  Use HFS+, unless you want to do multi-platform transfers, then go with FAT 32.

Open an MS DOS window and run fdisk(just type fdisk in the MS DOS WINDOW) and there is an option in fdisk that allows you 2 view drive partitions!\n\nHope this helps!

practically unlimited.  you can get a terabyte hard drive. (that's the largest that I've seen made so far)

Nice question, You can add an infinite amount of Operation Systems with the limitation of space on your hard drive. The other guy is right when he says that you will have problems after 255. But the truth is that anything past 10 will slow down your computer sooooo much it will be worthless unless you have dual core. I advise you that you keep the limit on 4. If you need more then that, then by a dual core computer with a high amount of memory. Don't bother trying more then 5 on a laptop because it will probably fail. \n\nOne other thing with too many partitions is that the more OS's you have, the less space you have for one OS.

not a problem at all.  you can have multiple drives each with its own letter designation

If you use the software that comes with windows to repartion your drive, you will lose your data.  In order to repartition your drive (resize for example) and still try to maintain the integrity of your data you will need a third party program to do that.  Personally, I like Partition Magic as it is very reliable and fairly easy to use.  There are other programs out there, however I am not aware of any free ones that are reliable and easy enough to use that I could recommend to someone else.  If you want to save some money on Partition Magic, you could try pricewatch.com or ebay for under $40.\n\nAGAIN:  The partitioning software built into Windows XP will not save your data.  The only way to resize a partition or change a partition without losing data is a third party program.

I don't think you lose anything, other than it taking a little of your time.  I'd recommend going with a reputable case vendor rather than buying a cheap one.  I've been very happy with the external drives I've got from Other World Computing (link below) and the cases they sell are the same ones they use on their external drives.  Despite their name, the drives work fine on PCs as well as Macs - - in fact, I have one of their drives on both a PC and a Mac at the moment.

first off 3 gb is a bit on the small side so you could move the files to a second hard drive. \ncompressing files is an option. another is removing some programs.

No, it's not possible to transfer the space.  You could, however, format the C drive and then copy all the files from the E drive to it and then use it again.

Yeah.... Disk Director is a good choice. It can accomplish this task easily and quickly. But why you need to have fat32 file system? Note that if you have fat32 system you aren't able to have files larger than 4 gigs on your pc.

Answers as below:\n\n(1) I think 4 Gig of free space is more than enough. Seriously. I keep my free space around 2 Gigs and never had any problems.\n(2) Its NOT possible to cut and paste the My document folder anywhere else on your computer. My Documents is a system folder and its position can never be changed. How ever, you can move the contents of the My Documents Folder to any place else. How about creating a new folder called "My Documents Backup" or "My Documents" in the E: or F: drive and moving all the contents to that new folder?\n\n(3) I would suggest, that once your free space reaches 2 Gigs, and you have to install a new program, th setup always gives you and option to choose the installation directory for that software. How about changing that path to E: or F: Drive. It helps! Another ways is to use third party software utilities like Partition Magic to take some space form the E: or F: Drive and put it in C: Drive. Just be very cautious and have a backup of your data before changing the partitions as just in case if something wrong happens you might loose your data.\n\n\nHope this helps.\n\nAll the Best!\n\n\nCheers,\nManish

512 is OK for basic usage such as surfing the Internet, e-mail, and word processing programs such as microsucks word(yes i said microsucks), if you are planning on using a photo editing program such as adobe photo shop, or playing games, go with 1 gig

512 MB. I find that satisfactory. :)

There are 1000 MB in 1 GB   So 512MB would be the same as about .5GB.   The 2GB is much bigger. \n\nGood luck and Happy Computing!

Well it depends on the purpose. You can definitely have a benifit of have the outer 20 GB as partition for faster access by using it for system files and applications.
