[QUOTE="swstacker, post: 1323366, member: 186150"] I am a new mac user but here is what I am doing and it works well. My mbp has a 750gb disk. I bought two 2TB external drives. I partitioned them both with 1250 GB and 750 GB partions. I have the time machine backing up to the 1250 GB partitions and SuperDuper! backing up to the 750GB partitions. One drive I keep at home and back up to it at night, and the other I keep at work and back up to it during the day. The time machine is always doing its thing but I only do the SuperDuper clone once a week or so. Seems to be the best of both worlds as I have a hourly backup from the time machine and a bootable HD if things really go south. Also I have two copies of each at separate locations. [/QUOTE]
