So, after marks back up question last week, i have decided to add one more external HD to my machine and do a full back up, currently i use two externals to back up photos and some doc's. I looked at Time Machione links on Gogle and i noticed this quote from Apple:
":Time Machine can’t back up to an external drive that's connected to an AirPort Extreme or a drive formatted for Microsoft Windows (NTFS or FAT format). If you select an NTFS or FAT-formatted drive, Time Machine prompts you to reformat the drive. Choose a different drive or reformat the drive in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format." When i buy my new external, do i have to run the disk utilities and format to Mac extended or is there a format on the external any way.
