How can I set up a fusion drive when my main drive is ssd?

I have a new Mac Pro with a 500 GB internal ssd.  I want to implement a fusion drive using an external hard drive to 500 GB.  The discussions I've seen seem to be the reverse:

an internal hard drive and an external ssd.

Why you want to do this?

I just use the disk SSD internal flash as a skinny bot player and put the data on the external hard drive

Apple says:

External hard drives USB, FireWire or love at first sight can be added to the Fusion drive?
An external hard drive can be used as part of a Fusion drive volume. Merger drive is designed to operate with an internal hard drive and internal flash memory.

    Ask Lexmark...  All material is supported by those who have made the material regardless of the operating system that you choose to use.  This includes the software (drivers) that the manufacturer chooses to create (or not) for each operating system.

  • How can I set Adobe Reader as my default application to open PDF files?

    I am a user of Mac with OS 10.5.8. The default application for PDF files found.

    Often when I get a PDF file, I can't see the content. It comes in white... except, perhaps for the letterhead. I have to convert the 9.5 drive Adobe to be able to view the file.

    How can I set my preferences so that Adobe Reader is the default application for PDF files?

    Thank you.

    I am answering my own question. I learned that if you right-click while trying to open a PDF file, you will be asked which application you want to use to open the file. If you click read the information, instead of choosing an application, you get this great information box that gives you the ability to set Adobe Reader in your default application for PDF files. It lets you change all the pdf files, you already have the Adobe files. Yay.

    My younger sister run my firefox just to this afternoon (she origin use IE), and she saw something that is not visible. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone must enter the password before running firefox?

    Another option is the master password + extension.

    You must first make sure that Firefox uses a master password, for more details on how to do that see use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords. Then with the master password + extension in its options, go to the getting started section and make sure that "ask for password at startup" and "Exit if cancelled" is selected both.

    As with all extensions, this protection is quite weak and can be bypassed if start you Firefox in safe mode that disables extensions.

    How can I know if an external drive has been used for Time Machine and what computer it came with too?

    I have several laptops and iMacs. I spent the relocation of the year and only used the MacBook Pro.

    Now I'm trying to figure out which drive goes with which computer

    I connected just a disk seagate 1.5 t and the first thing he did was to ask if I wanted to use it as a Time Machine drive.

    (1) if it is the TM disk accompanying this computer don't would not it have just started upward automatically?

    (2) what happens if I would have said yes?

    (3) I don't even know if it's been activated for TM. Is there a way to tell? It may hold just for iMovie files and other programs associated with a computer from my past.

    All readers of backup Time Machine contains a folder named: Backups.backupdb. If you open this folder, you'll find another folder with the name of the computer that has been saved. If several computers have been saved on the same disk, you will have several folders.
