“The fact that [??] hides the actual drives makes me think that this is all intentional to have users unlearn (or not learn, if young) how HDs work and bill for that juicy cloud storage.”

Are you talking about Mac or Windows?

Windows has those shortcuts which backtrack only to MyPC, and they’ve done that since forever. Always infuriated me as a Mac user since I am both user and Admin to get stuck in one of these loops, when I needed to get to root.

My PC -> C:/ is the easiest method I've found.

I always find it very fursting to get back to my user folder too without being stuck inside my documents or my downloads. End up adding a shortcut to the navigation panel for it.
