>Time machine is basically an external hard drive that Apple sells
>Mac OS can work with that external drive, scheduling automatic backups.

Correction to avoid irritations/misunderstandings:

That statement of you is not quite correct so far. Don't mess Time Machine (the
convenient backup service of MacOSX) with Time Capsule (the optional and not
compelling needed hardware drive offered by Apple). Time Machine is an integral
convenient part of MacOSX but optional service to automatically let backup the
whole system on a regulary basis.

You can use Time Machine with basically ANY external hard drive. You MAY use
Apples own offered external hard drive named "Time Capsule" for that job, but
you don't NEED (or are urged) to use that hardware -- you can use instead ANY
external Non-Apple HD (minimum capacity should ideally be equal to or greater
than the system's HD capacity) for that automatic backup job via Time Machine
that you want. You even can use Time Machine over a network and use a foreign
(meaning: Non-Apple HD) remote network drive, that is suitable prepared for that
job.
