[QUOTE="wheelguy12, post: 1225959, member: 197775"] Yep - it just needed a reboot. It's very entertaining to watch TM run, I'm going to enjoy doing this. The only real weak point so far is the sparse bundle. Seems it has to be created first on a Mac compatible file system, then moved onto the NTFS file system. Guess I'll be learning more about sparse bundles. I'll bet someone has found a way to create them natively on NTFS disks, how to expand them, etc. Well worth the trouble, though, to be able to have just 1 network backup drive. Thanks a bunch :) [/QUOTE]
