I am running Mac OSX and want to know when a file is trashed from an external hard drive is that file copied to the main HD when put into trash. Does it just show the file in the main HDD's trash can just so you know that its in the trash can or is it literally on the main HDD?

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
