I'm running first aid in Disk Utility on my 4tb time machine back up drive to see if the drive is starting to fail. I've been getting errors "creating a back up folder" causing TM to fail. I have used 3tb on the drive over the past year. First Aid is taking 10-12 hours, but the drive usually checks out ok. Does that seem right? or is my drive on it's way out? Thanks!
