[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1517610"] In addition to what bobtomay said, backing up three machines to one physical drive, partitioned or not, is putting a lot of backup eggs in one basket, so to speak. If that one drive fails (and they all do, eventually) then you lose backups for all three systems. You could add another physical drive (or more) and RAID them if you are concerned about that.
