[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1103226, member: 131855"] You are correct about the formatting for Time Machine is extended journaled. You'll also want to use GUID as the partition type since you are using an Intel based Mac. Off the top of my head I can't think of many files that would be larger than four Gb. If you rip/copy a DVD the files in that folder would take-up four Gb but that is collectively for the entire folder. Too slow typing on the iPad. Looks like CWA beat me to it. For comparison Mt TM backup had a yehttp://www.atpm.com/15.03/howto.shtmlar of stuff but took up an entire TB. For a look at some of the things I excluded check out [url=http://www.atpm.com/15.03/howto.shtml]ATPM 15.03 - How To: Time Travel: Introduction to Time Machine[/url] [/QUOTE]
