I've done some searching and can't find a conclusive answer, so thought I'd ask the knowledgeable folks here a question about Time Machine (something I've just started using in the past week).
Say I have 2 internal disks, DISK A and DISK B. Is it possible to have 2 separate time machine backup disks (i.e. one for each of those drives)? Or can Time Machine only exist on a single volume/disk per machine? In other words:
DISK A uses BACKUP DISK A as a Time Machine volume
and
DISK B uses BACKUP DISK B as a Time Machine volume
This doesn't really seem to be a possibility with what I'm seeing in the Time Machine prefs, but I have been wrong before. I already do at least one standard backup (CCC or SuperDuper) with Disk A and Disk B, but I'd like to add Time Machine into the mix if it's easily possible.
