[QUOTE="tovli, post: 1332593, member: 225663"] [b]Mac 101: Copying Time Machine DB to bigger disk method work?[/b] Fast forward a year after your post - different person: I used the "Mac 101 copy Backups.backupdb folder from old TM disk to the new disk" method ( on OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard). First time I did the copy, something weird happened and I only got a partial copy. Second time it worked (8 hrs to copy over USB 2.0). Maybe I answered the pop up question wrong the first time. There is a popup, after it has counted the number of files to copy, with three options. [/QUOTE]
