Dumb questions from "newbie"
I have a 17" G4 & a 20" G5 & want to make backups to my 3 yr old unused firewire 160 GB Maxtor OneTouch. I tried using Retrospect but got a lot of error messages & have been told SuperDuper is better! I have the free version for now.
Although I have read a lot of Help & How-to stuff I am still confused 1: Can I make a bootable backup using SuperDuper & the Maxtor? 2: If Yes do I then make seperate backups & update them regularly or is it the bootable copy that is updated? 3: I suppse I'm asking if I should partition the Maxtor for the bootable copy & keep the other backed-up files seperately? I hope someone understands what I'm asking??? Oh - I do understand that both Macs will/may have their own partitions on the Maxtor if this is how to do it! Many thanks, TerryW.
