10.5: Disable Spotlight during Time Machine backups
Authored by: Zeitkind on Oct 31, '08 07:00:05PM

I had the same problem with those drives - until I tried to constantly cool them with a fan - and problems were gone. I think those drives just overheat in those plastic shells, I can't recommend them at all.
I now use them only for short backups and put them back on the shelf afterwards..
