I currently have an external drive on-site which I use for my Time Machine backups.
I have just been given a second drive (Seagate) that I would like to use occasionally as a second backup and for it to be kept off site.
This new drive has previously been used as a Time Machine backup on my daughters laptop. It is full.
Can anyone tell me how to correctly format the disk for this purpose.? I would not like to confuse or damage my existing Time Machine backups.
I have an imac and am using El Capitan 10.11.6
Thanks
