Q: Can't copy time machine folder
Hi,
I had to format the hd where I have time machine, so I copy the tm folder to a new folder in other external hard drive.
Now that I format the 1st external hd I trying to copy the tm folder to the root of the formated hd, but after a long wait I get a message saying that there is enought space...
How can solve thia ?
How can I copy that big folder faster, is there any other way ?
Thanks!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Pathfinder save my day!
I just move the TM folder on it with no problems and in seconds, just need to authenticate with my user password and "voilá"!
I then reboot my iMac and boot with the Lion DVD and restore from Time Machine witch identifie correctly the external hard drive where the TM folder was.
At this time and, after restart I get the bellow window, I'm not sure what to do, can you tell me please ?
I should like to ask you (in your opinion) witch is the best device you recommend to use for Time Machine, Time Capsule ? a normal external hd ?
Many thanks!
