I ordered a WD 500GB FW/USB2 external HD from Dell ($133 + 20% PayPal discount) to go with the new refurb iMac since my old external backup drive (80GB) wasn't cutting it.
I've got about 90GB of data currently (250GB hard drive in the iMac, yay silent upgrade...).
My question: Leave the whole ridiculous amount for time machine, or partition the drive in two -- one for Time Machine, one for a clone made via CCC?
