Question on new Mac and Leopard...
New (to me) Mini coming Monday! Yay! :bounce:

Question: I've got a bunch of photos and what-not on an external Firewire drive. What with Macs loving to do things automatically, I wanted to make sure it wasn't going to decide to erase it the moment I plugged it into the new Mini (Time Machine, or something).

Fear not?

1. It should just mount automatically, and nothing else. So you are safe.
The only way time machine will touch it is if you tell it to do so.
enjoy your new mini, Robb!
