Hello
I just backup a a new Macbook Pro 17 to a Western Digital Elemements 2TB drive.
I am new to Macs so I have a couple of concerns/questions
The Macbook had nothing installed on it, vanilla setup.
My two concerns
1: The reformat of the drive using the directions found in the link below took less than 10 minutes. For 2TB I thought it would be much longer.
Mac OSX 10.5.x (Leopard), 10.6.x (Snow Leopard), and 10.7.x (Lion)
2: The first backup using time machine took about 10 minutes. The total size of the backup is 10.33GB
Are any of these things normal or out of norm?
Thanks
