Hi there,

before I'll purchase I've got a litte question I'm worried about:

I've got an external HDD conneced over eSata. So when I plug it in,
it will be detected as an additional Sata HDD and this will obviously affect my
HWID I think.

So will I only be able to start xClient with the state I registered the HWID
(either external HDD plugged in or not)?

Hope you understand what I mean and thank you for your answers!

I think it will not affect your HDD as far as you running xClient from the current HDD.

Oh, I think you misunderstood me.
I fear that the second (external eSata) HDD will affect my Hardware ID
so I will not be able to start the xClient because it was activated on a machine with
only 1 HDD.

Well, when I added another HDD my HWID didn't changed.
So assume it will not affect your HWID in any kind of way

That's all I wanted to know.
Thanks for your fast help! :)

It could be that the xClient detects a HWID change, but it will be for free.

Extra HDD that you add won't matter. If you change the HDD that you first ran xClient on, then it will matter.
