That was very good information.

I would have liked to have known how long a HD drive lasts if only powered up and rewritten a couple times a year. I have HDs that I use under those conditions for about 20 years now. I also have a number of newer HDs also. I have backups of backups as I do not have the money to replace all of the sounds I have collected over the 40+ years of MIDI and I do not want to lose the many digital pictures I have taken over the years.

Thanx for sharing.
