I havent done it myself but I believe you have to be using NTFS5 for your hard drive partitions to take advantage of those features.

"dude your getting a dell", is that kid trying to say he wants to stick his 'dell' in you?

you can create multiple log ons, and restrict access to certain folders. your hard drive must be ntfs.

i went to the tomshardware forums and all i got was this lousy signature.
