Seagate Free Agent 1TB Drive For Mac - No on off switch -2 Questions ??
No.1 Is this possible, i.e., will Time Machine only use it's portion of the drive and will not eventually write over the Super Duper part.
No.2 I have read that the Seagate drive does not have a on-off switch and it may go to sleep when the Mac does, and possibly not wake up when the Mac wakes up. It seems that this may be a setting that requires the Seagate drive manager software to be set to never sleep. I don't know if the Seagate Drive Software is compatible with the Mac OS (10.5). Should I get a different drive that may be a better match ? Any recommendations by someone that is more knowledgeable than I.
Thanks.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.3)
