Hi Charles --
I'm honored to have a personal reply from the King of Legal Formatting.
Yes, D is formatted. It's Fat32. I keep my data there. The boot
drive, C, is formatted NTFS.
Is D shared? How do I find out? When I click "properties/sharing" I
get a dialog box that asks if I really want to share.
