[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1221207, member: 46727"] Because Time Machine backups are not bootable whereas the clone you make with either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper is. You never know when you may have to boot from a USB external drive to do testing or because of some other problem you may be having. It's always good to have redundancy. I do both on a regular basis.
