Do you mean to delete the data from your system (to make room?) and just keep it on the HD you remove?
If so, I don't know that I'd be comfortable with this for primary storage. Failure could happen at any time and there'd be no way of knowing until you happened to have need for one of those files. Also, the farther into the future you plan for, the more you have to worry about compatibility... eg, in 20 years you may have no way of plugging in your PATA/SATA drive. -- My Site |
