umount

[Keith Smith]

External Drives?  I have 3 or 4 of these :  
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=seagate+backup+plus&N=-1&isNodeId=1 
   It comes with windows software and Mac software.  Did not remove 
anything.

Just plug in and start transferring files.

These are really nice because they do not have external power supplies.  
They use the power from the computer.




Work well. IIRC it comes with some windows software installed.
