[QUOTE="johndope83, post: 1204382, member: 193594"] Ei guys sorry again for raising a stupid question but i'd have to raise it nonetheless... Anyway, I have a 1TB external HDD I partitioned into two drives. 600GB as FAT (so that I can use it to store files for my PC and watch movies on my home theater) and 400GB as Journaled (as my Time Machine back up drive). I noticed that the free space get's smaller and smaller everytime I back up. I'm guessing because it's adding up all the files I added to my mac everytime I back it up. My question is what if the 400GB becomes full can I still back up via Time Machine? Does Time Machine have a shelf life or point where it will erase the last back up to give way to new ones? Sorry for being an eager beaver with all the questions... just want to be educated. Hope you could help me out... thanks... [/QUOTE]
