O.T. Missing Folder/files

I think I'm pretty well set for the present and my needs. The main
purpose for the Mrimgs is for disaster protection. As I said, I may

I should be OK now with my backups and Mrimgs etc. Although since I put
the 2TB #4 in the 8500 it means I only have the #3 hd as a spare and the 1TB .
The 780 has a 2TB hd plus (2) spares #1 and...

There's no icon to safely remove and you said if no icon was present then
the partitions haven't loaded and I could just pull the plug, correct?

I've tried both #1 and #2 hd's in the 780 and checked disk management
