LaCie External Drive
I bought a LaCie external drive to use a backup and as additional storage. The backup side of things seems to be working fine - everything on my Mac (G5 iMac, OSX) is mirrored on the LaCie hard drive.
But I can't seem to store anything separately or independently from what's on the Mac's hard drive. If I delete a file on the Mac it ends up deleted in the Lacie. If I add something on the Mac, it ends up in the LaCie - again, that's great in terms of back up, but I want to clear some things off the Mac hard drive and just keep them on my external LaCie (which about 3 times the capacity as my Mac).
When I originally set up the LaCie I used the easiest option for set up. Now that I'm reviewing the manual again there's a lot of stuff about partitioning the drive.
Does anyone know what I'm missing or any ideas that would point me in the right direction?
Thanks
