[QUOTE="rbpeirce, post: 1927135, member: 410088"] That's no longer true with containers. I can set up several container partitions on an APFS formatted drive or hard partition and they will expand as needed. I don't know if they contract or not and I'm not sure it even matters, because, in addition to two Time Machine backups, I use SD! to backup my HD to a container on an external drive. Get Info says it is the size of what's on my HD but that it has all the free space on the drive available. I use sparsebundles when I have to but I don't like them. They seem more prone to corruption than partitions or containers within a partition. Of course, that could just be my experience. [/QUOTE]
