Hi there: Here’s the story: I have two external drives in addition to the internal one on the Mini listed below. One of the externals contains everything that used to be in iTunes (I haven’t bothered to rename to drive), because the main HD is not roomy enough to hold it all. The other external drive is the backup, partitioned to handle the main HD and the iTunes material separately. Up to now I have been using Carbon Copy Cloner to make my weekly backups because—well, I don’t remember why it appeared at the time that Time Machine could not handle backing up everything since it’s split among two different drives (one internal and one external), but that’s what I thought so there we are.
With the new OS that Apple is issuing in the near future I would like to revisit the backup strategy, please. Could someone please confirm whether or not I can back up everything using Time Machine given the way it’s all configured now? And is Time Machine the best tool for backing up, or should I continue using CCC even though it may not be compatible with the new OS right away? All thoughts welcome. Thanks in advance, as always! *************** Bill Spencer in Maryland Mac Mini 2.6 GHz i5/10.15.7 -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
