[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1899398, member: 46727"] Okay, just finished testing with several blank T5 SSD portable drives. When formatting a T5 for everyday use, the format is APFS (no case sensitive). However, when assigning that same T5 to Time Machine usage, Time Machine then prepares the drive and it becomes APFS, case sensitive. So, you are correct Jake. It is strange that Time Machine does that but there must be a reason. I didn't test with a spinner as I didn't feel like digging one out from my "device shelf" but I suspect it would yield the same result. Charlie [/QUOTE]
