[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1160200, member: 46727"] 1. Do both. Reason: SuperDuper and CCC clone backups are bootable, TM is not. Time Machine backups can be restored automatically when you do a reinstall or an erase and reinstall. 2. Any external hard drive can be used with your Mac. It may have to be reformatted, but it can certainly be used. There really is no such thing as a Mac only hard drive. Don't be fooled by having to pay a higher price for a "Mac hard drive". [/QUOTE]
