I have been using SuperDuper for well over a year now and I just love it. Anyway, up until now I only have one backup that stays on location and I am just about to get a second external HD for extra protection that I will be taking home with me, being taken in to work, say, once a week at least, for backup. My question is, can I backup both of my external HD's at the same time? Or do I have to make one then the other?

Thanks

You have to make one, then the other. Just schedule them to back up, one minute apart, and we'll take care of the "details".

Oh bummer! I was hoping I could do those at the same time... maybe in an updated version :)
Thanks David

It won't really help, Nick: you'll saturate the I/O bus, thrash... just won't be fast.

Really?! I never thought of that, but now that you've mentioned it, it makes perfect sense!

Thanks again!
