Ok I have quite a bit of content and am wondering as have both my tower computer and my laptop,

if I can have poser on my tower and the content including the daz installed content on the laptop and have poser pick the content up through the network to the laptop?

You can, but external drives tend to be slower, so it might affect the speed in which Poser retrieves the content from inside your library.

I have my main drive partitioned and my my main runtime is in the default location on my C Drive, but I add very little to it.  The only thing I add to that Runtime is:

1.  Python Scripts because they don't run from an outside runtime;

2.  V4/M4 installs

1. !DAZ morph folder from my external runtimes.

Everything else gets installed into my external runtimes.

My external runtimes with all of my content is located on my D Drive (part of the main drive that was partitioned). So it's set aside, but not on an external hard drive.

Also, I'm learly about external hard drives. I figure that if they are constantly being accessed, they have to power up or whatever they do when they make that sound that they make when you go to access them in "MY Computer", that they might burn themselves out or something.

I do have a copy of my runtimes on my external drive for safe keeping. But as I said, I access them from my D Drive.

Ok thanks its lack of room on my main hard drive to partition it like that My computer has enough memory as in ram but is slowing down because the hard drive is getting to full

The only thing that I can move off it is the poser content to my laptop hence why am asking how if its possible for poser  to pick up the content from my laptop through the network, I know it would slow it down but there both fairly fast machines and my net is fairly quick aswell

As indicated, won't work for python, Anything Vicky, Aiko, Michael, he/She Freak anything current Daz basicly needs to be under your main runtime. But everything else can be accessed remotly, although slower will work, just add the runtimes to your library.

Thanks will give it ago over the weekend :)

Have you tried compressing your poser files? It frees up gigs and gigs and gigs of space!!

Instructions on how to do it are located here:
