Finding things in Finder · What's on your external drive

Where on my external drive does Data Parking put the folders I move?

Short answer: In your Mac's own folder on the fast drive. When the panes are paired, moved items keep their place in the folder tree, with any missing folders created; right-click in the right pane and choose Reveal in Finder to see them.

In your Mac's own folder on the fast drive, which is where Data Parking's right-hand pane starts when the drive is connected.

When you Pair the two panes, whatever you move keeps its place in the folder tree. Pair at your Projects folder, drill down a few levels and move a subfolder, and it lands at the matching spot on the drive — any missing folders along the way are created for you.

To see the result, right-click the item in the right pane and choose Reveal in Finder.

See the Data Parking window.
