[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1950837, member: 204485"] I think having two EHD's performing the same TM task may well be causing a conflict that may be the root cause of the disconnect. Either way, with respect I think it's overkill. I do have two Backups of my M1 MBP (my only computer at the moment) but they are using different backup applications. One is TM the other is Carbon Copy Cloner. Given that so much of my data is backed up to iCloud, (even my Password Manager has an encrypted copy on iCloud) it is highly unlikely that I would loose any data in the event of a total failure of my Mac. In fact that has happened twice already over the years and with no loss. [/QUOTE]
