Hello. I am wondering if anyone has had problems with files disappearing off of their internal drive. I have a external drive (made by cavalry) that regularly backs up my files via the time machine. For awhile I was noticing that some of my songs in my iTunes would mysteriously disappear. I just decided they were songs and I didn't really care much. Recently I lent my hard drive to a friend and just got it back. I backed up all my files yesterday and I am certain that files have now been removed from my internal drive (I am certain because they were payment confirmations from comcast that I saved).
I am wondering if anyone has any light they could shed on this subject. It is very nerve racking to think the device I'm using to make sure I don't lose files is destroying my files.
Right after I made notice that files has been removed from my internal drive I was using my iPod (which had been connected to my MacBook Pro at the time of backup) and noticed whole directories were missing.
I am inclined to believe time machine is doing this because it is the only feasible answer right now. If anyone could shed some light on this subject I would be much obliged.
Thanks in advance,
Josh
