i keep erasing it cause i am ANAL!!!!!!!!!! lol i was so infatuated with getting my xbox to work that it always interrupted the initial backup so i thought it might have screwed something up, so i started over. and before you say it, yes i should have fooled with the router settings before i started time machine, but i was excited to get TC so i wanted to do everything at once, so just get off my back about it ok??? lmao just kidding, i know i am a putz for erasing it so many times but whats done is done 
and i know it will never be 500gb total, but losing 20 or 25 gigs i though was alot
