Start Using Your Server
Multiply the used disk space by 1.5. The result is the minimum amount of disk space Time
Machine can work with (That’s because Time Machine needs space for all of your files plus some
extra room to enable it to store new data and multiple copies of files that change.). However, more
space is always better, because it enables Time Machine to retain backups that go further into the
past. A backup disk with at least 1.5 times as much free space as the amount occupied on your
local disk is recommended, and more if possible.
Configure Time Machine Backups
Before you begin,
•

authenticated.
This information is used by Time Machine to set up the backup destination, as well as the links to
the shares on the server. This information may have been entered at the end of the Mac software
install. If so, you will be authenticated automatically.
