Dave,
I've been using SuperDuper! for the past few years now. Love it. Great job.
It saved my @$$ when I had 3x Hitachi drive failures, plus one Fujitsu that finally died after couple of years. All on the 2006 & 2007 generation MacBook Pros.
Apple finally swapped the computers for me (successively), so I am the proud owner of a spanking new Mid 2009 Unibody MBP 17.
I also bought a Seagate FreeAgent Go 500 MB Firewire 800. Have been happily backing up on it for the past month.
Last night, for the first time, I noticed the same problem desertboomer saw, namely, that my backup volume had a "2" appended to the back of the name.
Been following the thread, so I saw your note below.
In the folder "Volumes", I noticed that "1" got created on Nov. 9th, and "2" got created last night.
Question: Do I have a problem with my backup drive? Should I replace it as it is still under warrantee?

Check the /Volumes folder (use Finder's "Go To Folder" command) to see what might be there causing this... it's usually drive failure.
