Hi,

I did some searching and saw people posting some scripts to mount and unmount drives, unfortunately that scripting looks like a foreign language to me - I can't make heads or tails of it.

My situation is that I have several FireWire drives connected to my iMac. I would like to leave the one FW drive which is a Clone of my Macintosh HD unmounted except for the time each night when I do a Smart Update.

I would really appreciate help coming with a script that says:
1) "mount "Clone" FW drive"
2) run the scheduled SD! event
3) "unmount "Clone" FW drive"

Thanks!

No need, it'll work automatically. Just schedule a backup to Clone and eject it. When the time comes, SD! will mount, copy and unmount.

Wonderfull, sorry for asking what now seems like a dumb question - but this is a great feature and I'm glad to know about it now.
