You can plug USB external drives into many internet modem/routers or some drives can be connected to your network wirelessly, but Time Macine can be a bit picky about the ones it will happily work with. >> it's best to *not* have backup drives always connected in case >> something goes wrong. > > I guess in that case I'd have to plug the drives in every night before > going to bed (so the back-ups could run still automatcially every > night) and then every morning ejecting the drives' icons in case > something goes wrong during the days. The best approach (that almost no home user does) is to have at least two drives, which you alternate, say every Friday, and taking the swapped-out drive off-site. That way, even if your house burns down, you'll still have a backup somewhere else that is at worst a week old. Even better is to also add in an online cloud backup, but that can be difficult if you've got a slow or data capped internet connection, and the initial backup will take longer than to a local drive.
