[QUOTE="mbp7, post: 1330367, member: 224909"] thanks to both of you. slydude- you might be right with the time capsule thing. i think i have it, though... connect an external drive, or a time capsule if i purchase that, and tell time machine, software on the mac, to backup to the external device. if i have to start from scratch, i just have to plug in my hard drive with my backups, launch time machine, and tell it to restore from the latest backup on the external device/time capsule, if i buy one. can time machine backup to a NAS device (no usb on the NAS, only network accessible and yes, the NAS is mac friendly, i just have to make sure i didn't turn that off)?
