Trizzy’s Mindspray: My Simpsons Hard Drives
Posted on Oct 1st, 2008 in Mindspray by A-Trak

Why are people so uninspired with their hard drive names? You can give them any name you want, and yet everyone’s got the same “Music”, “Music II”, “Backup” or “Big Kahuna” names. I confess, I used to suffer from the same blandness, until I decided to name one of mine Ralph a few years ago (as in Wiggum). Ever since then, all my hard drives have had Simpsons names. One of my backup drives is Dr Hibbert. I’ve got 2 portable drives that are always together and they’re called Monty and Smithers. My latest one is Cletus, I don’t care about it as much.
I hope someone reads this and gets inspired to find a running theme of their own. 80′s wrestlers! Renaissance artists! Kool Keith aliases! The possibilities are endless.

LOL love it!
ur music drive is “Disco Stu” ?
All mine are named after 24 characters… my old PC and new MacBook are named JACKBAUER and Palmer, and all my various hard drives are Chloe, Sherry, Edgar, Kim, etc.
Inspiring thoughts Trizz. What about the many dead drives i’ve got scattered about my studio….should I bury them in the backyard? Fucking Western Digital ‘MyBook’ drives have ruined my life. Months of music & samples lost…ahh fuck it, we’re all dead in 2012 anyhow
I always name my drives funny names…
My most recent is Poo Bum!!
My others are Dick Face and Doofus.. Don’t ask me why they just are…
My Black Ipod is Ebony Jane.. Which isn’t that interesting And my White MacBook is Lily..
Liking the idea of the Simpson though…
I’ve got 3 named Yacko, Wacko and Dot.
I may have to rename mine Alvin, SImon & Theodore….
I’m not sure I want to guess what your grounds keeper willy is…
