    I am guessing that the data belows tells me that I need to
    partition this HDD to make some or all of it Swap or
    Extended or something ... yes?

    What is the recommendation, please?

    The initial purpose is to serve as a temporary backup
    drive so I may dump my 9.0 notebook to it, wipe the notebook
    HDD for a clean 9.1 load, then to copy back on to my
    notebook things like the address book, the contents of
    my Mozilla past E-mails and Web bookmarks as well as
    some Kate and OO text files ... so I guess that the
    mode of transferring the data to the HDD will dictate
    the ease of getting at it later.

    Sure appreciate any guidance! I cannot afford to lose
    the notebook data ... nor that on my 9.0 desktop once I
    get to it.

    Am looking forward to 9.1!
