Backup disk config. for backups
Hello,
I registered and have a full version of SuperDuper. If I wanted to make a backup of my boot drive and my data drive, do I need to create 2 partitions on my backup drive? Boot drive: 80g Data drive: 250g Backup drive: 250g Cheers, Hattori Hanzo |

Yes, you'll want a destination partition for each source partition or drive of sufficient size to fit the data's "maximum size" plus a little as working space.
Alternatively, you can back up to individual sparse images on a single partition, but those aren't directly bootable until restored.

Terrific! That's how it's supposed to work.
