Since it's getting so large, I wish you had looked into the LaCie drives
I mentioned earlier. In case you missed that post, visit www.lacie.com.

I looked at Shrink which will reduce the current size by 30% according
to EM.  It appears that the extra space is there for future expansion
and seeing as I have a slew more files to import there is no point in
doing so YET.

I will keep you in mind for those hard questions about largish DBs!
