[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1623282, member: 46727"] 20 or 30 minutes preparing a backup is unusual. How much data is being backed up and is this just for the first backup or for every backup? A SMC reset isn't going to do any good although it won't do any harm either and it doesn't matter if the external hard drive is attached or not. [/QUOTE]
