Hi All,
So last night I installed a new 500gb WD Scorpio Blue HD. I'm assuming I installed everything ok. Took me a moment to seat the drive, might not of screwed in one of the screws all the way.
Installed SL (retail disc, not up to date one). Install went flawless (even got a full 499gig out of the drive before the install .. wahoo). I had two minor problems though, and I'm wondering if I should worry or not.
First problem, I ran a sudo command to open up TextEdit to modify the /etc/hosts file. I saved it out and closed TextEdit, but it still remained open in the taskbar. I opened up a terminal and did a kill -15 on the process. Didn't seem to do that the second time, but could that just of been a SL quirk?
Second issue was when I plugged in my FW 800 enclosure, the OS didn't give me an error or anything but it didn't mount the drive at all. So I unplugged it and replugged it back in and mounted fine. Could I of just not plugged it in good the first round? (This drive I used perfectly in Leopard for Time Machine).
I might just be overly paranoid I'm sure, but figured I would ask the community
Thanks all!
