Hi,

I know that if you use Time Machine to back up multiple computers on the same hard drive, it will save each computer's backups in separate folders called Firstname Lastname's Computer.

However, both computers are mine, so they would both have the same name. Will this cause a problem or is there something more than just the name that TM will use to figure out there are two different machines backed up on this drive?

Thanks
