[QUOTE="ferrarr, post: 1948761, member: 376394"] It seems you do want 2 partitions, not containers. It will be easier to identify them. When you set up TM, you have the option to select how much space you want to use on the disk drive you selected. So you may not have to partition the external drive. 5. If a new window appears, you can select the maximum space used for backups and choose whether to encrypt backups. Click Done after selecting settings.
