Hmm, while that statement may be true speaking in generalities, many people do extensive work on their computers well into their golden years. If I didn't have current multiple backup copies of my data, I'd have over a terabyte of data at risk! Assumptions will bite you in the butt every time!Our IT guys just RAID the drive, so if you know how to access files, you can simply access them afterwards.
Common users, just like elderly, have hardly any files, so it is easy to partition drives to fit everything.
