I’d like to point out that I’ve added the functionality of Dynamic Drive to the blog as a simple image gallery. I plan on using it for inline images.

In the never ending battle for hard drive space, the first place any sane person will look is media. Movies. Music. Photos.

Using an external disk for your iTunes library has one downside: If you use a laptop, your library and your computer might not be in the same place at the same time. You’ll be able to sync your devices and browse your library, but obviously you’ll be unable to partake in any media consumption.

This should be of little consequence as your iPod will probably be with you, and probably has some of your media on it. However, if you must have everything, all the time, consider getting a small external drive before abandoning this approach all together.

About a month ago, my mom mentioned that her iBook’s startup disk was getting full, and that she had started to receive warnings from OS X about it.

Since my mom isn’t the most technically inclined, I told her that I would get some easy to follow tutorials together. Well that hasn’t happened yet, so I’m doing it now.

There will probably be a few articles in this series, as there are several things you can do to save yourself from a full startup disk.

Obviously, the easiest, fastest, and all around best way to alleviate this issue is to upgrade your internal drive. If that’s not an option for you, follow along.
