[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1002158, member: 46727"] ellenm: I use both methods of backup: Time Machine and CCC, however, I found it much easier to use two separate hard drives. Cost is greater, but large external hard drives have come down in price which made it easier. The advantage of a cloned backup is that you can recover much faster if your internal hard drive should fail. A backup made with CCC is bootable whereas one made with Time Machine is not. You would have to restore using your install DVD before Time Machine could be used. Regards. [/QUOTE]
