[QUOTE="schweb, post: 93915, member: 59"] Congrats on the drive, I have a LaCie as well. Yes, if you plan to backup both your iBook and iMac you'll want to partition the drive into 3 (one for each system backup and a third for whatever you want like audio/video). The advantage to this is you can make bootable backups of each system. I highly recommend SuperDuper! for your backup app...you can get it from [url]http://www.macupdate.com[/url]. Another alternative that's free but not as powerful is Carbon Copy Cloner. The backup software that comes with the LaCie's isn't that great and I wouldn't recommend it. [/QUOTE]
