The other day I removed several hundred tiny dust specks from an old photo. I noticed that every time I clicked using the clone tool, it blipped the external FW drive I boot from. Then today I noticed that every time I type a single letter in Photoshop, the hard drive blips.
I worry about my poor little hard drive doing what I consider unnecessary work. I like to treat it gently and have it work as little as possible.
Can I stop these blips by loading something into memory; or is this a symptom that I need more memory? I have a G5 running OSX 10.4.7, Photoshop CS, and 512 MB of RAM, with 60% allocated to PS.
