Bob ========== On my secondary drive (data drive) when I have it filled to capacity and want to delete (under Windows) it seems smart enough to know it can't remove something to the trash bin. So it then says there is not enough room (or something) to throw put this in the trash bin, do you want to delete it permanently? When it is filled to capacity, I answer yes. So I am not sure you have to turn off the Recycle Bin for a secondary, data drive. I think no space is allocated for that until you delete and you can fill up the HD anyway. (Or maybe I already did that somewhere and I don't remember.) Another thought: Filling up my secondary drive never slowed down my system. But then I made sure Adobe used Drive C for it's stuff (scratch disk, whatever they call it). They only thing that ever seemed to slow down my system was adware. So I periodically run various programs to detect it and delete it. I also go in to system configuration and remove things from start up on a periodic basis.
