Hi all,
I'm trying to create a system to manage my data. Currently my '11 MBP (320GB internal) backs up to an external 500GB Time Capsule, with another 500GB drive used to store archival type files (movies, finished projects, music, etc).
I'd like to:
A. Increase the Time Capsule's size
B. Have the archival drive 'backed-up' in some way
I'm considering the possibility of a 2x2TB RAID1 mirror wherein drive 0 is partitioned into a 1TB Time Capsule and a 1TB archival partition, with drive 1 mirroring these.
Is this a good solution? Is it even possible? Should I just install an internal drive large enough to contain core and archival files and buy a single external drive for Time Machine?
I'm new to all this, so any input on which option is best/easiest would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
