My understanding was that a time machine drive is just an ordinary Mac
formatted disk. The main issue is that TimeMachine keeps making
incremental backups until the entire volume is filled. So if you copy
those movies to the disk first you should be ok but later if you delete
one TM might suck up that extra free space.

Hey all. Today I bought an external hard drive because of that freak accident
with my Mac a few weeks ago. So I got a few questions about it.
1. I want to do a time machine backup of my entire HD. However, I have a whole
bunch of youtube videos I copied onto another system other than my Mac. Can I
copy over those videos onto the external drive without partitioning it?
2. If I have to partition the drive, how would I go about doing that?
Thanks in advance.
