[QUOTE="Collin Bl, post: 835600, member: 95994"] Seems to me that you have the cart before the horse. Choose where do you want to end up, then choose best gear to achieve that. My thoughts; keep these factors in mind Time Machine is not a bootable back up as such. Time Machine keeps great record of historic changes. In case of catastrophic HD failure it is nice to be able to continue working with out days lost for replacement and restoring. Fire or Theft can really screw the scrum if you have not planned for it. My scheme, SuperDuper and an off site Firewire 800 for speedy weekly backups. Time Machine - the router/ethernet hub/500GB drive for day to day back up as well as a 5GHz 802.11n connection for an iMac and MBP and off that an Airport Express with 11g for wireless printing to Brother from either Mac and for iPhone wireless. When my MBP failed i booted of FW 800 thru wifes iMac and kept going for the 2 weeks before the MBP was fixed. Then just updated back to the MBP from the FW800 for changes in the 2 weeks. [/QUOTE]
