    I need to know what the data files for Einstein@Home are called and where they are stored under Mac OS X .6. I am also running Time Machine (the backup system for the Mac). Time Machine backs up the data files once an hour to an external hard drive called Time Capsule. My concern is about the cumulative disc storage space needed every hour for the data files from Einstein. I have no idea of the size of the downloaded files, but 24 copies of files that are constantly changing must take up a fair amount of disc real estate. I would like to be able to delete old data from Time Capsule, or to limit the backup frequency of just the Einstein files. And therefore a name or type of file is needed. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Joe

      Ignoring my answer to the same query you made yesterday, won't make it go away, you know? :)
