HD and bootcamp :)
 
Looking at the thread title, I thought the OP was actually suggesting we physically pull out our hard drives and post pics of them! :eek: :p

Here ya go!

NEWBIE QUESTION!!

...how does one change their HD icon?


Its very easy, google "os x icons" and find sites like http://interfacelift.com/icons-mac/ where you can search and download the icons. There is a way to make custom icons but i cant seem to find it now. Once you downloaded the icon you like follow these steps.

- Select the icon you like, click file, click Get info (shortcut apple key + i"
- At the the small info page that pops up select the icon on the top left side and do apple key + c (copy).
- Now select your hard drive and do they same thing except to copy it, past it apple key + v (paste).

You should be done.
 
Just one storage house for now

Aloha everyone,

Here's mine - my main iMac HDD, followed by my two external HDDs (one for backup and the other for movie rips :D) Speaking of movies, you can also probably tell my favorite all-time series hehehe :D
