[QUOTE="MrChris, post: 533415, member: 7584"] Hi Andrew, I posted a similar question in the fact that I did not want my external drive turned on all the time. I have found that if you right click on the Time Machine icon in the dock you can start a manual back-up that way. (Click "Back Up Now") This is ideal if, like me, you don't want/need hourly backups and only want to back up your machine say at the end of each day. Hope this helps, Chris :) [/QUOTE]
