[QUOTE="Krs_2007, post: 169698, member: 12948"] You should keep the backups separate to prevent any overwriting of files. But thats only if you are going to use an automated backup system. I have a 1TB drive that I use for 3 computers but I manually copy the files over that I want as I dont need any of the OS files. If I need any OS files then I can re-install that. So I would assume you are referring to backing up Docs/Pics and such, if so then you can manually copy/paste. A little more details of how you plan to achieve the backup would help Scott. I have all Mac's and use Time Machine to make the initial backups if needed, but Time Machine can handle this. So you really need to know if its possible with whatever software you are using.
