Copy to External Hard Drive

Once I have downloaded Sonar X1, and its other downloads, well I be able to copy the files to an external harddrive and will they still work?
 
Thanks

    ummm..  like Spockpit?



    well....



    You could have set the save location of the download to an external HDD when you first started the download, that way all the files would already be there once the download finishes, saving you the task (and electrons) of copying them from your internal drive to the external drive and then deleting the files on the internal drive. So, as you see,  a 20% - 40% improvement has potentially been missed.

    Yes, I could have, but I do not yet own a external harddrive, and I was gathering information to see if my purchase would be worth it?

    el funt,

    Karyn was speaking tongue-in-cheek.

    Yes, an external dive is always well worth it in my opinion.
