[QUOTE="skaheadpunk, post: 651518, member: 45677"] Yes, if you use a lot of your HD. No, if you're only using 100GB or whatever. I'm not even backing up to mine at the moment and I've managed to fill 150GB with random stuff and movies in a month, and it's only going to get worse... On the other hand you can add another HD to the TC via USB if you did run out of space. To sum up: if I were you or you were I, I would get a 1TB TC, mostly because I know I horde data and will fill the iMac HD and need the space on the TC to back up. And the backup won't just be the size of your HD. Because Time Machine keeps backing up, it'll eventually fill the drive (I think...). Sorry, tis early, I'm a bit vague today. [/QUOTE]
