You didn't address this in your response, but I notice that today you answered another question with "* In general, the backup volume should be the same size as the original."

Is this, or is this not, an issue? My new internal drive (scheduled to arrive tomorrow) will be 320; my external is a 250. Today, I am only using about 50, and I really can't see that number even doubling in the foreseeable future. (In the past, my backup was about 120 and the original was 74, and I moved freely between the two)
