[QUOTE="peacockharris, post: 1928675, member: 415058"] I stand corrected RE: Sierra. Guess it's more of a hidden feature. I've actually always had 2 TM drives backing up alternately, but once had both become unreadable at the same time, presumably due to some blip with Time Machine. No idea why it happened, and thankfully I didn't need to go 'back in time' for anything. I just reformatted them and started from scratch. But ever since, I've had an extreme level of paranoia about my backups, and always kept a 'spare' of my own. [/QUOTE]
