[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1522761, member: 46727"] Yes, you should have partitioned the external drive. Carbon Copy Cloner will overwrite anything that's on the drive. I keep two external hard drives for that very purpose: One for CCC and the other for Time Machine. It doesn't make sense to use one hard drive for both if you wish to have redundancy with your backups. Lose the hard drive and you've lost both your backups. Keep them separate on two hard drives.
