    I have a silver 8TB Lacie porsche drive in silver under the monitor under my iMac. It fits perfectly and looks like it's part of it. I have a partition for Time Machine on there and then I use BackBlaze and Time Capsule for automatic backups cause ya neva know.

    • you're backing up the files on the 8TB to the Time Machine partition on the same drive?Gnash
    • Yeah, that seems entirely self-defeating.face_melter
    • I always make sure to write down a note of all the data, the 0's and 1's, before i shutdown my mac at the end of day. Unfortunately it takes some time.fruitsalad
    • but if a drive fails on me, i can always look at my paper notes of 0's and 1's and input my lost data. Again, takes awhile. but you know. safe.fruitsalad
    • heh, nah, separate drives altogether. Multiple Time Machine backups. Tiem Capsule is a separate drive (also used for TM)fyoucher1
