[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1932374, member: 83420"] Possible, but not advisable. (Personal opinion) Drive fails. All BUs lost from two different sources. I totally understand your need to divest your Mac's HD of data to free up space. Certainly move your Photos Library or your Music library to separate EHDs. (One for each). And my personal view is that Time Machine and Cloned BUs should be on separate EHDs. But; there are many on this Forum who have different BUs on the same EHD. See what others think:) Ian [/QUOTE]
