texte = Dan,I have removable mounts for my harddrives. They lock with a key (not surehow secure that is though) but the benefit is, it's easy to shut down thesystem at night and take the harddrives with me. They're inside a littlebox that fits inside the mount so they should be pretty well protected fromthe elements. Nothing to unwire, unscrew, and you don't have to open thecase to get the drives out.Something like this:http://www.shentech.com/hardrivmobra.html$25-$40 or so.GK> Also, is there really a way to prevent someone from taking over yourmachine with a boot disk?> -Dan>> On Sun, 8 Dec 2002 20:11:36> Dale-Lists
