[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1317468, member: 46727"] I routinely dismount my external Time Machine drive as I do not like automatic backups, however, whenever I mount it, it's recognized as such. I do the same on both of my machines with no problems with two different TM drives. Try erasing the drive, reformat as Mac OS Extended Journaled, rename it and set it up again as your TM drive within TM preferences. Let's see if that works out OK. [/QUOTE]
