[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 865485, member: 24160"] Instead of TM if you're going to continue using FileVault, think I'd recommend SuperDuper! or CarbonCopyCloner. I have a similar setup, with my external in 2 partitions. I use SuperDuper! on one of them, which provides me a fully bootable backup drive. Now if your internal fails, you simply reboot to the external and can continue working until you have time to replace the failed drive. TM is a great idea, but once your internal drive fails, you're still doing nothing until you get a new drive. [/QUOTE]
