Hi All,
I recently plunked down for a 1TB timecapsule and just partitioned it in half for use as a shared drive. Is there a way to keep it mounted? Whenever I wake my laptop up, I have to initiate a backup inorder for it to appear as an available drive.
Also, is there any use that can be found from the old airport express that's being kicked to the curb? Or do i just sell it to recoup a portion of the dough?
Thx in advance

Make an alias of the shared partition. Put it in your dock or on the desktop.

When you wake your Mac you launch the alias. The network partition will mount and a Finder window with the partition's content will open.
