For example, I carry my portable around for large files I need to share when I'm working or picking up a lot of picts from a clients. I bought them so I could back up my HD AND have room for other stuff. And the only thing I can use them for is my HD backup? What a waste of money. If I use SuperDuper or CCC, can I have anything else on the external device? Will it automatically erase and replace everything on there? My externals are an 80 g and 500 g drives. And I goin' nuts trying to figure this out, lol. I understand the merge, MHC, but actually I think my question about the erasing data has possibly not been answered yet, just mentioned in passing. Which is an extra pain b/c I have to do it twice ( I want to have 2 back ups) Right now I'm doing it one folder at a time and hand selecting what is new, then copy/paste on the external drive. I really hope that makes sense b/c this is making me crazy. How do I add my new files from the HD to a folder with the same name on the external drive without replacing the whole folder and losing my other doc's? MB Harddrive - Folder "clients" with files H,I,J,K,L,M,NĮxternal drive - Folder "clients" with files A,B,C,D,E,F,G So now this is what I have - I used letters to represent files: I was told to only reinstall what I needed to avoid potentially putting something back on that could have caused a problem. I copy and pasted my user folders and apps folder. Before that I backed up everything to two different external drives that I have. The problem I'm trying to figure out is this - A few months ago, my HD was replaced.
I have to send my MB to Apple and they will wipe the HD. I'm looking to use something like SuperDuper to update my external back ups.
