[QUOTE="chscag, post: 841666, member: 46727"] 1. Time Machine will ignore the Boot Camp partition. 2. Time Machine is a backup program, nothing else. Use Disk Utility to re-format the external to HFS+. 3. See answer to 1. Time Machine will ignore the BC partition. 4. It's best to go the other way. (OS X to BC) If the BC partition is FAT-32, OS X can read and write to it. However, if the BC partition is NTFS you will need a third party application (Paragon NTFS) to read and write. OS X can only read but not write to NTFS. Regards. [/QUOTE]
