Any disasters in the past year?
There are many people happy with Time Machine, and it seems to have
become more stable to run as designed in the past year. True?
The only problem I"ve had with Time Machine was the failure of the
external drive on two occasions. It really requires a rock-solid
drive. I've had good luck with Buffalo and Seagate externals. The ones
that went bad was an already pretty old 'Metal Gear' enclosure (the
drive is chugging along just fine in another enclosure) and drive
failure (surprise surprise) on a WD MyBook.
It has saved the butts of a number of people here, including just last
week: a professor who just managed to erase his whole documents folder.
