albo - can this truly be done? I've read about doing so with a MyBook and have not found conclusive fact that you can daisy-chain them and run the last in the line as the backup for both the laptop and the first-in-line external drive.
I probably don't need to the 1TB drive - My total drive space is 480, so maybe I'll be fine with the 500. I don't back up movies and such, but my external drive has my itunes library, movies, and tons of audio recording files.
In that case as well - if I'm going for a 500GB drive, any thoughts on just getting a Time Capsule?
- i time machine my 500gb HD (prolly 60% full) to a cheap usb2 500gb external. works great.inkpink
- cheap meaning a mybook. time capsule seems like a backup luxury unless you need the wirelessinkpink
- Already have wireless DSL; I think I'll just go with a new MyBook 500, and be done with it.mg33
- Time Capsule is expensive....fyoucher1
