My sons PC is ready for the Pro 2012 upgrade in a couple of days. This time around we are going to put the runtime folder on an external hard drive, and I have some questions before I mess that up.

Should I set up a folder called "poser" on the hard drive for the new runtime folder, or is it better to let Poser do all that when installing? Also, is there a way to stop the external hard drive name letters from changing? I have three external USB drives and occasionally the drive letters change, and I know that will cause problems down the road.

Anything else I should be aware of with external runtime? Please let me know so I am armed in advance. A few nuggets of information are worth more than a mountain of ignorance.
