Dave,

1.
I understand from what you say that placing the SD application in the TM exclusions probably doesn't serve any purposes since TM wouldn't be copying the SD backups which are backed up to my external Lacie FW drive. Got that one! <BG>

I understand now that SD won't be copying my TM backups since they are on an external WD drive. that makes sense.

But....(there's always a "but" isn't there?) if I don't turn off TM whilst backing up with SD, TM could conceivably begin to and work on processing its own backup at the same time and, I think? (that's the operative word here) that the 2 programs working at the same time might cause a problem? therefore, probably I should continue to turn TM off prior to commencing the SD backup process. What do you think?
