You should be able to backup to most any drive as long as it's formatted
for the Mac. I think Time Machine is kinda picky about this so if you've
got it formatted as some NTFS or whatever volume Time Machine probably
won't touch it. Largest drives right now are 4TB unless you have a box
that uses multiple drives like a Drobo.

Dear list, I'm writing about 2 interesting Apple problems, one I have a series
of IMAP mailboxes into my mail accounts, here in my Gmail account, and in my
cloud account. Unfortunately on my MacBook I cannot access any of these IMAP
mail folders but on my big iMac I can. For variety of reasons I will not have
my iMac for at least another 2 possibly 3 weeks have I'm in the process of
moving so the issue arises how do I gain access to these IMAP mailboxes that
appear in mail as separate mailboxes Russian Mark the other issue is that I
cannot seem to get Time Machine to back up to my 2 TB drive that I have
connected to my MacBook. I do have a 500 Gig Dr. that I could hook up to my
MacBook but much much slower than the 2 TB drive, so I look for to 10 TB drive
if I can. Does anyone have any suggestions for all of this? PS I am using
Dragon to dictate this post, please forgive any errors in spelling, syntax,
and/or grandma. If you really can not understand this? Please fill free to
write me off list and we can converse and wanted out to get it twittered you
can understand what I am asking. I think anyone who can help me in advance and
have a great evening.
