Easy external multiple HD question

All,
I have a WD MyBook 500G that I like very much which is attached to my G5 2.0DP via FW 400. I'd like to add another one and have seen the problems in other threads about d-chaining drives, etc. And, although there seems to be problems if done wrong, I'm sure there are some efficiencies you can benefit from if done right. So --
What's the best way to hook up two similar USB/FW ext drives to a G5?
Many thanks in advance for your responses --
Ray
Performa/G3 iMac/G4 eMac/G5 2.0dp/and my 15" G4 1.67 DL PBook w/2G RAM ROCKS!!!   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   My Macs are like my children, I love them all equally (even the ugly ones)...

Look into a FW powered hub and maybe even FW PCI.
Make sure to reformat it as well.
One of the other problems with FW is with two drives, in some setups, you will find performance falls off the scale to 25MB/sec even on FW800.

  • Best app to import and study multiple choice questions.

    Hi,
    I'm searching for an app to help study for an exam.
    Part of the studying strategy is to study by the previous exams questions. I have those (a lot of them) in text format.
    The app would need to have:
    - Support for multiple-choice questions;
    - Easy, fast and automated way of importing the questions;
    Would be nice to have:
    - Ability to include a rich-text comment along with the right/wrong answer;
    - Support for tagging each questions.
    I've used the search function and found this:http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1041085 but it's been a while since then.
    thanks in advance

  • Adobe Captivate 8 system variable "cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice" is empty for random multiple-choice questions.

    Does anyone run into this problem when capturing the user answer for a random question slide? Adobe Captivate 8 system variable "cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice" is empty for random multiple-choice questions.

    Hi Shriyansh.
    The reason I am interested in capturing the user answers in Submit All situation is that I know after I published the test using SCORM 2004, all the user responses were captured in "cmi.suspend_data" because my test can resume the test to the last exit question in the middle. However, when I looked at the suspend data value, I have a hard time to understand the pattern and pick out the meaningful user question responses data. I really need help from you to understand how the suspend data value was constructed and how to parse this data. Another area I thought it's easy to get the user question responses data is the interaction records, but I always got only one question (the last randomly sampled question) interaction record. See the following generated XML SCORM 2004 4th edition data. Could you help me figure out how to interpret the following suspend data to get the users responses to each test question?  And why I only got one question interaction record? Thanks again for your help, Zhuoran.

  • Multiple Choice Question Issues

    I am embedding a quiz within my presentation with individual
    question slides interspersed throughout the presentation. These
    questions are pulled from a couple of different question pools. I
    want to use a multiple choice question that branches to different
    parts of the presentation depending on the correct or incorrect
    answer. If the user answers the question incorrectly, I send them
    to the next slide which has two click boxes. On this slide, they
    can either click one box to move back in the presentation and
    review the material or click another box to move them forward to
    another multiple choice question. If they go back and review the
    information, they would eventually return to the same multiple
    choice question to try it again. (This is the desired navigation,
    anyway.)
    What actually happens is that when the user goes back to
    review the information and then finally returns to the question,
    the question has not been reset and still shows the incorrect
    answer marked with no way to clear it.
    I have used this same navigation on a drag-and-drop type
    question and it works fine. All the settings for the
    multiple-choice questions are set the same as in the drag-and-drop
    question.
    Any help in making this work correctly would be greatly
    appreciated.

    I can't see where that error might arise except possibly for a case where an AS2 radio is used since it appears they don't have a group property, but an AS3 radio button does.  Check to be sure that your Flash Publish Settings are set to use AS3.  AS3 errors normally have error numbers which also makes the error you quoted ring of an AS2 scenario.
    Here's a link to the file I made based on your code that works fine and doesn't display the errors you mention.  It is a CS3 file.

  • Multiple choise question, limit number of options

    Hi,
    we have a multiple choise question with 10 possible answers. 5 is correct, and 5 is not. How can I limit so the user only can check 5 answers? Right now, the user can check all 10 and get full score.
    Im using Captivate 8.
    Kind regards,
    Pontus

    Hi,
    I am relatively new to Captivate (currently using version 7) and have also been looking at this.  I have a programming background so have been mucking around with trying to create this using advanced actions so would appreciate some advice if I've gone about it the right way or not.
    I have created 4 answers with clickable smart shapes to show whether they are selected/deselected.  I have variables to store the number of allowed answers, number of selected answers and question score (which update with the selecting/deselecting of each answer).  To keep things simple, I am assigning 1 point for every correct answer selected and only have 2 correct answers.  There are 3 separate 'submit' buttons (one worth 0 points and not included in quiz, one worth 1 point included in quiz and one with 2 points included in quiz).  Depending on the answers chosen, the relevant submit button will be made visible (and the others hidden).
    What I'm having trouble with is that the points from the submit buttons that are included in the quiz are all contributing to the total points available.  I want the question to only be worth 2 points but because I have two buttons (one worth 1 and one worth 2) that means the total points available for the quiz is 3.
    Any help on where to go from here much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Chris.

  • Creating Multiple Response Questions.....

    Hi.
    I'm looking at updating a load of Java Applets here at work
    accross to Flash.
    I'm not looking at using the quiz templates but wondered if
    anyone can help me out?
    Basically I need to create a multiple response question using
    an xml file and was wondering on the best way to achieve this?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I need to use an xml file for the questions and answers.
    And there are more than 1 correct answer for the questions.
    I'm pretty new to actionscript so a few pointers in the right
    direction would be a great help to me.
    Should I be using the xml component? The dataset components?
    Check box components for the questions?
    How do I get the xml to interact with the flash.... sorry for
    all the questions.

  • Getting my first external hd -- my questions are probably easy

    Hi.
    The questions I have are probably pretty easy, and have probably been answered here before, but, I wouldn't even know what to put into a search to bring these answers up. . .
    I'm getting my first external hd. I'm wondering if once I have some media backed-up to it, if I'll be able to use applications on my home computer disk to open the files (be able to play mp3s on the external drive in iTunes, namely). A sub-question is - would it be possible to just install my os on the external and boot from it (this isn't important, though)? Also, if any of this is possible, is it terrible to run the external all day as I do my iBook?
    I guess this hd isn't even really for back-up, but for more space, really. I just don't want to try to install a new internal hd myself, I don't want to have to send my computer in, and this drive will eventually be for back-up, anyway.
    One last thing. Should I just browse around the Apple online store for this hd, or could anybody point me toward someplace cheaper (looking to get one that's at least 250 GB)?
    Thank you for any help in advance,
    Daniel

    You will be able to use your external hard drive to open files from. Example of iTunes:
    * If you organise your music folder so that all music is moved to a central location you will have to move your iTunes music folder to your external drive. See:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748
    * If it is set so your music stays at its current location when importing then all you have to do is import files from your External HDD.
    If it is a firewire (not USB) hard disk you can install/Boot Mac OS X from it. It is fine to run OS X permanently from your external HDD although it may be a little slower than running off your internal hdd drive.
    Note on new intel macs you can boot off USB drives, PPC macs like your iBook need firewire.
    Good Luck!

  • How do i create a non-scored multiple answer question?

    Hi,
    I've tried to figure out the best way to do this in Captivate 7, but can't find an answer. I hope you can help me out as I'm stuck
    I need to create a question with 10 possible answers. They are opinions only---not correct or incorrect.
    Kind of like:
    "You are going shopping. What do you want to buy?"
    1. apples
    2. bread
    3. milk
    4. muffins
    5. flour
    6. juice
    7. pasta
    8.  dishwashing soap"
    etc.
    The learner should be able to select none, some, or all and then click submit and advance to next slide, with no feedback given. I do not need to track anything for the LMS.
    What should I use to do it? Interaction, Quiz, Survey, or Widget?
    I am pretty weak with variables, so hopefully your solution will be simple
    thanks!

    Strange... You could have a MCQ that is a survey instead of a graded question (no score automatically) with multiple answers. Delete all the feedback messages and keep the buttons you want, only Submit is really necessary, you decide for the other buttons. But then the user will have to check at least one option. Maybe you can add the option 'I don't know' or 'I cannot choose'? That will be an easy solution.

  • How can I get multiple likert questions on one slide?

    Hi,
    I have 9 questions I want to ask in a Likert survey in Captivate 7.
    When I insert a Likert question slide, it defaults to only show 1 question per slide.
    I want the learner to see all  9 questions on 1 slide.
    Can anyone tell me how to do this?
    thanks!

    In Captivate 7, if you select the Likert scale and go to the Quiz Properties tab, under the General tab you can change the Answers from 1 to a higher number and get a nice list of items to go with your disagree to agree list.
    That's my relevant to the thread comment and here for posterity to anyone looking for the answer to it.
    But I came here because I want a total from the Likert and it doesn't exist during the lesson, since it doesn't report scoring back to the student.
    I've been reading your older blogs. Lilibiri, great stuff that makes me wish there were a simpler way in the newer version, but I can't find it. Basically we are creating a question series that becomes a self evaluation checklist, and want to assign the point range to the answers, 1 for disagree up to 5 for Agree, adding up "positive traits".
    Was originally thinking of using multiple choice set as a pretest but there's a bunch of variables and actions to write for that, and I saw your post about a simple text entry, which looks more manageable and I'll have to figure that out.
    But the simple clean familiar look of the Likert ... I wish there were an easy way to just get those numbers in a total, now that it's in version 7 even. So annoying that it pushes my procrastination button and I don't even want to work on the rest of my lesson!

  • New to Macbook Pro, External hard drive question.

    I've just made the swirch to an Apple Macbook Pro from a PC.  I've used the PC since the early 90's and all I know is Windows.  However I'm finding myself more at home in Lion.  My question is probably a simple one so I'll get to it.  I have a 1TB Seagate Mac/PC external usb powered hard drive that I've used on my PC for all my iTunes media, 95% of which was purchased from Apple (who the **** knows if that matters but information could be crucial and besides I saw someone else say that in a post, only he found his music, whatever that means, anyway....).  Now I have added all files to the library of my iTunes on the Mac while still running them from the external hard drive and everything transferd smothly (see not a complete idiot) but for some reason I can not write to the hard drive.  If I try to update an app, delete a fie, rename or otherwis change the file in itunes I get an error claiming I don't have permission to do so.  When I look at the drive itself, sure enough it says I may read only.  Now the drive was formatted and used on a Windows PC prior to today.  What do I need to do on the Mac end to make it read and writable (is that the right word?) so I can enjoy updating my apps or plain getting rid of some old things?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Your external harddisk uses the NTFS file system which is common for Windows PCs.
    Mac OSX can read from NTFS harddisks but cannot write to them.
    For full access you need a third-party helper tool like the free NTFS-3G or Fuse4X or the commercial ones from Paragon or Tuxera NTFS for Mac.
    In the long run and when you don't need a "Windows-PC-compatibility" of the external harddisk anymore you should consider reformating/repartioning the external harddisk using the Mac OSX native partition and file system formats. (GUID and MacOS Extended (Journaled)).
    But such an action would delete everything that is on that external harddisk so it is not that easy.

  • External Hard Drive Questions

    This is more of an opinion question.
    I have a MBP with an 80GB hard drive which always seems to be full up. I also have a 250GB hard drive which is nearly full up. The 250GB is not used for backup, i have all my photos and big files on there and none of my files are actually backed up
    I was thinking about getting another 500GBish hard drive and using it for more space and also time machine - can it be used for both? Can anyone recommend a good cheap hard drive?
    How well does time machine work with laptops? would i have to plug it in every night? does it have a sort of separate trash kept on my computer which is only deleted when i plug in the Mac to the External hard drive. Or is anything i delete without the external hard drive attached deleted forever?
    Or, is it worth the hastle and cost to upgrade my MBP internal hard drive?
    Thanks very much

    okay so what would a cheap hard drive from PC World be like - like this Western Digital Elements Desktop 500GB 3.5" - although i imagine that link will probably time out.

    I think i want to stick with Time Machine just because it looks so flash and easy to use really, plus i would have to pay for Super Duper
    I dont really feel confident switching the hard drive myself, i tried doing the RAM once which is alot easier and i competly messed it up and had to take it to an apple store. How much would an apple store charge if i asked them to do it?
    Would it be okay to have time machine running at the same time as also having separate media on the same hard drive? How much space would time machine take up?
    Thanks very much for your replies
