Personally, I use Primary / Secondary.

Master / Slave never made sense to me because both drives work independant of each other unless it's a RAID array and even then it's just data striping..

[Kuro]

But you don't use different terms because it offends you.

[tranKwilized]

Well.. Where I was going with that is that Master / Slave doesn't practically make sense in this application.. so I could see how someone could take if offensively.

[Kuro]

And even if it doesn't make sense, what is offensive about it?

[tranKwilized]

I really don't know.. I mean I never even thought about it until I saw the article :gotme:
