[QUOTE="Dogbreath, post: 1604676, member: 171258"] JJ...you asked about brands of ext hdds. I highly recommend WD just because I have had great experince with WD in the past. I currently have 2...one for TM and the other with my CCC. As chas_m suggests...use separate ext hdds. I use a Firewire 800 WD for my CCC backup since it is bootable and runs just a bit slower than the internal hdd. The WD I use for my TM backup is USB 2.0 and that is good enough. Probably all ext hdd's come with some kind of manufacturer's software that is not required for operation and is optional to install...my advice is...DON"T! [/QUOTE]
