Welp already moved 47GB off the computer... that should help it out lol. I was nearing the disk is full warning lol. So far I'm liking this mycloud. Retrieving the files on this are super fast too.

Now just need to tweak it a little bit more for my needs

Edit* also I appreciate the LED on/off option. Wish all electronics had that.

MacOS Catalina, on a 2013 air. Was always a windows guy till I started my current job. They solely used macs, picked this one up for a steal and it was perfect while I was traveling. I had windows bootcamped on it for a while but I didn't have quite the specs to have them running at optimum performance so I took it back off.

I hoped I would get\hear some more information and experience about this. I do everything I can to avoid automatics but when a Manufacturer Rep says 40% of cold weather automatic transmission issues can be identified by this I would have expected this to be at least somewhat common knowledge yet I've never heard of it. Apparently I'm not alone?

River, I honestly have never heard of it on a Ford. Like I said in the other thread, Dodge, particularly their trucks, have the most common issue with drainback. Not too sure about the valve body thing. Never heard of that issue, and I've been around A LOT of transmissions being rebuilt. I know that if my Buddy builds a Cummins with a 42/46RE or an A518/618, he ALWAYS removes the check valve.

EDIT: In fact, my Buddy is coming over tonight so we can finish up his business cards and his web page listing on Google. I can ask him if he's heard of the VB deal. My guess is.... if he hasn't told me, probably not. The most common valve body issues are on Nissan's. The 4R70/75's also have a bit of an issue, but near as bad.

White,

Going to go with Indigo. Does your experience with the place suggest there could be a benefit to delay buying now because of the season and time of year? It often happens at this time of year. Thanks.

Not that I can recall. I am averaging one license every month or so, and although the price does move up and down a bit..... I can not tell you a time frame of when. If I was buying them for personal use, I would probably be better about knowing that, LOL. But when I need them, I just buy it, no matter the price.
