Also, if you ever replace a drive there is a distinct chance that the drive will be a different size (even if it is the same model). After being bitten by this I always make partition a few Mb smaller than the device. David thomas62186218@aol.com wrote:
Thanks Justin. If that's the only risk, I'll go with full devices. This will ultimately be a headless system with a separate boot drive and only administered by me and used internally, so I'll be careful. :-) Many thanks! -Thomas
