[QUOTE="quin, post: 1008769, member: 136361"] Switched out my original 160GB HD for a 500GB HD. The 160GB HD becomes an external. Right now I only used about 26-27GB total. Pretty sure I should be able to designate my 160GB external as a backup drive under Time Machine and also retained it as bootable. Using Time Machine, it won't wipeout the drive will it? It should just write the 26ish GB and keep the backup folder/files into the 160GB external drive right... [/QUOTE]
