Hi guys, wanted to get your opinion on the best way to handle my current setup when i upgrade to Leopard.
My macbook has a 120gb internal hard drive. My itunes library is currently about 84gb. My itunes library does not fit on my macbook HD and hasn't for awhile due to other programs and files. So in the past, i have one external hard drive which along with backing up the entire contents of my macbook, also is where my itunes library is located (no music is on the macbook HD). I have a 2nd HD that backups up only my itunes library, when i remember to do so. so here is my question.
What would be the best way to fit Time Machine into my setup. I would like to designate my external to be my time machine backup HD but i would also like my itunes library to be backed up as well. I don't know how to get time machine to backup both my macbook HD and my itunes library. i need a way to do this without having a third external (which seems silly...right?)
on a side note - when are they going to make 500gb internals for macbooks????? it would really help me out (for now....).
Let me know what y'all think about this.
