[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1672621, member: 131855"] The TM drive generally uses the icon you referenced. Most external drives have the icon that Chas_m referenced. The blue drive with stick figures is the icon normally used for network drives. @Jake do you have the Time Machine backups on a Time Capsule or other network device? In that case I think those drives mount as blue network drives (see above) and turns the normal TM green when the Time Machine sparsebundle is opened to start a backup. [/QUOTE]
