You just have both backups and plug in whichever one or both at a time and have it backup and it just works. Maybe you store that at a family member's house and you swap it out every week. Unplug it and plug the other one in and the one that isn't plugged in could be at another location. Have one plugged in for a period of time. Or simply have two backups sitting at one location. So you can go back and forth between two locations and have two backups. Then when you put it on the desk at either location you plugin that backup drive and Time Machine will automatically backup to that drive. So, for instance, if you have a MacBook that you move between home and work you can have one Time Machine backup in one location and one in another. As a matter of fact it will backup to whatever is available. Set is up as a Time Machine backup just like the first one and it will backup to both places. You just add another hard drive to your Mac. The first is simply to have a second Time Machine backup. Well, there are three steps you can take to go just beyond the basic backup. So a backup is a must have for any computer user.
