As a newbie, I have read the forums and think I know just enough to be dangerous.
Here is what I want to do. Create a fully bootable clone of my imac AND have an Aperture "Vault" for my photos that I have in aperture.
I seem to understand that a separate partition makes sense for this. Would it be wise to have 2,3,4 or how many partitions? Why partition at all?
I want to have my "digital life" on the external drive...itunes music, aperture pics, imovie movies etc.
Thanks for the help and looking forward to really being "smart" with my backups!
