Hello Everyone,

       I successfully installed SME 7.3 and I love it it is everything wrapped into one package awesome idea. However I have a dilema, I am using a system (PC Compatible) With a 160 gb hd as the primary and I have a 750 gb secondary drive which is where I would like to have all data and a backup of my 3 internal pcs kept is there a way to add the 750 gb to the mix easily?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,
Have you found these: AddExtraHardDisk and AddExtraHardDisk - SCSI in the wiki?

This is what I got when running the command but like I said I am new to this I don't have a clue, The Drive is an IDE 750 gb Seagate Barracuda.

fdisk -l
