[QUOTE="PsYkOoOoO, post: 818347, member: 52176"] Hey guys, I recently bought a 320G external hard drive for my iMac's Time Machine. However, I feel that backing up every hour is going to take up too much space in the hard drive, filling it up way too soon than I'd like. I know there is a function to exclude certain files, but I am not sure which to exclude. So far I have only excluded the System files, and I'd like to know all the best files to exclude from Time Machine's backup and really only keep the vital stuff. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
