Yet again ... No Hopper-compatible EHD available

[Luddite by Choice]

I've been using a WD Elements 2TB for my iMac Time Machine drive for years without failure.

Mine stay warm and the third one I tried even shows many layers of backup, but I can't actually -- you know -- go back in time. (At least it's a warm paperweight.)

I subsequently put a bullet through it.

Bullet? Them newfangled things are dangerous! A broadaxe is much safer!

I had to chuckle about your comment about your screen name and "2-Hopper/7-Joey/9-TV system spread over two buildings", Mesh Wi-Fi... If you're a Luddite, then hopefully your IT staff is not! What does it take to not be a Luddite now? Warp drive?

He failed as a Holosuite repairman. Couldn't find one…..

On that note, Apple, Sandisk, WD, and I have given up trying to get three different Sandisk and WD SSDs to get Apple's Time Machine to back up my Mac properly.

We do have a Computers and Gadgets section of this Forum. I have been using Macs since my Father-in-Law needed Tech Support and I got a refurbed Mac Pro in 2007. I might be able to help you out over there.
