My Big Fat Hard Disk and Leopard

Last week, after getting Leopard with the rest, I felt the strong need to buy another external hard disk. Not just because to use Time Machine with, but also because space on my other externals was getting tighter. Oh, and dealing with video work demands lots of space as well.

It was so tempting... what started out as a harmless rombongan to Low Yat with Jonathan to help him get a new hard disk for his Macbook, turned into me splurging on this baby down here. The Western Digital My Book Pro 500GB with Triple Interface.

Yes, TRIPLE INTERFACE! I finally have a Firewire 800 external hard disk and it is just superb!

The front and side shots: the round circles lights up when it's turned on

From the top: 1 Firewire 400, 2 Firewire 800 and 1 USB port. 

The desk from left to right: Macbook Pro, 400GB 3.5" external, 60GB 2.5" external and the My Book Pro 500GB

This picture signifies that I have moved to Leopard successfully! Installed it over the weekend


Why a picture of my old but still in good condition n70? Sentimental reasons. To be continued in my next post

  1. Hi,

    What's with the recent issues of leopard hogging cpu usage?

    Yeah, my ibook G4's cpu is burning hot. How's running leopard on your mbp?

    Any idea/solution?

    Thanks
