[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1267074"] You CAN keep both backups (SD and Time Machine) on the same drive, but really there's not much point -- if the drive should fail, there go ALL your backups! With drives so crazy cheap these days, I'd suggest getting a separate one for TM and one for SD. Better peace of mind, more flexibility about how often you want to do the SD backup (ie, turn on the SD drive). [/QUOTE]
