Dave,

Hope you're not sick of my "newbie" questions yet.

I currently back up 2 drives nightly. One is the system boot drive, which is formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and the second drive is just for data files and is formatted as Mac OS Extended. Both backup partitions are formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Is this a problem? Do I need to change my second drive to be journaled?

And also another question regarding my second drive...In the "Ownership and Permissions" tab, it has "read only" selected under the "you can" option. Why is this? My main drive says "read and write." I am the only user on this computer, and I write files to that drive pretty regularly.

Thanks for all the help!
