For me, it's not that. Spotlight keeps reindexing my backup drive, and it's really annoying.
It doesn't happen all the time. Maybe once out of every five backups. I plug the drive in, turn it on, and then it starts grinding away as Spotlight tries to create its index. I have to turn it off, otherwise the backup will take forever if I try to backup to that drive while Spotlight is indexing it. I have no problem adding the drive to Spotlight's privacy list, and as soon as I do that it immediately stops indexing, and I can proceed with my backup. But I have to keep doing that, over and over. Spotlight seems to occasionally forget that I don't want it to index this drive. Why? |
