As I have now acquired an External HD I just have a quick question  
with I hope a quick and simple answer.  When I need to shut down the  
computer, does one have to CLOSE or EJECT the HD before shutting down  
the computer?  Similarly, when one puts on the power does one have to  
turn on the HD unit after starting up the computer?  Or can one just  
treat it as if it were inside the computer (an additional internal  
HD) and just power up everything before starting the computer (as at  
present) with the power already on on the Ext HD and Shut down  
without first shutting off the Ext HD first?  In other words does one  
not need to use the power switch on on the Ext HD - just leave it on  
all the time?

Thanks in advance

Paul
