My backup scenario is as follows: Powermac G5 2.3 dual, 5gb ram w/Seritek1V4 & G5 Jive and Leopard. Main boot drive in the 'built-in" drive bay (A) 500gb Misc. storage in "built-in" drive bay (B) 500gb Boot drive clone in G5 Jive 500gb (seperate drive) Time machine volume in G5 Jive 500gb (seperate drive) Misc. storage clone in G5 Jive 500gb (Seperate drive) I know there are downsides to this setup, but can't really think of any at the moment.
