[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1399301, member: 131855"] Let me see if I understand your question correctly. You are using an external drive for Time Machine backups. You want to know whether Time Machine will keep backing up to the internal drive if the external id disconnected? Yes the backups continue on the internal drive until you are able to connect with your external drive again. This only applies to 10.7 (Lion). Other versions of Time Machine did not do this.
