[QUOTE="Hisacorn, post: 1647421, member: 246621"] I have an older imac (2009?) running 10.5.8 and a 2011 macbook pro running 10.7.5. They are filled to capacity with mostly photos. {Yes I am a very bad girl...} I want to back them up to an external hard drive..a single hard drive between the two of them. Then I will get a Backblaze subscription and work on burning dvds of my images and uploading them for printing so I can get them off my computers... I am looking at a 3TB hard drive under $250. I have found a G-Drive and a LaCie. I know I need to consider something about USB 2 and USB 3, etc., but I don't know how to determine what I need. I'm looking for any/all advice in this situation. Thank you so very much! [/QUOTE]
