I have an iMac with 250GB attached to an external Lacie 500GB mini
on the external drive I keep my iTune library and it is at 380GB (not backed up) and I back up my home folder every week using .Mac back up program, home home folder is at 130GB , so I have run out of storage (20GB available on the Lacie) I also use an AirPort Extreme base "N" to stream to my AppleTV.
Is this a good idea? or can someone suggest something
To purchase an other external Drive of 1TB, partition 500/500, use one halve to back up my iTunes, and the other halve to set up Time Machine for my home folder? and would I want to hook the new drive up to my AirPort Extreme, or daisy chain of my existing lacie.
Since I have a "N" Extreme Base, would there be any reason to purchase the 1TB Time capsule, since even now I am hard wired to the router
