[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1922807, member: 396914"] That fits the symptoms. The error message was because back to #2 wasn't finished before you swapped back to #1. When it did finally finish, everything was restored and both drives should be available. Just remember that TM can take a while to finish. On the top menu bar, you can see if it has finished by the status of the icon for TM. When it is backing up, the circular arrow has two arrowheads. When it is between backups, it has just one.
