แบ่ง Partition ของ Time Capsule

[dj_ekk]

เพิ่งได้ Time Capsule มาใช้ครับ
แต่ว่าเราจะแบ่ง Partition ยังไง ครับ
เพราะลองเปิด Disk Utility แล้วมันมองไม่เห็น HDD ใน Time Capsule

ขอถามท่านที่เคยใช้หรือรู้วิธีช่วยตอบด้วยนะครับ

Its really very simple.

• Open Disk Utility (in your Utilities folder)
• Go to File -> New blank disk image
• A "Save..." style dialog will pop up. Choose your Time Capsule as the save location and give the disk image a name ("Data on Time Capsule" or whatever you want)
• Choose a volume size (there are several presets but in your case you'd choose Custom and pick your size. Leave Volume Format to default (MacOS Extended Journaled). Choose if you want it encrypted or not (you'll have to enter a password to access it, but it'll be safe from prying eyes). Leave Partition at its default and Image Format as read/write.
• Click Create and it'll make a disk image on your Time Capsule of what ever size you've chosen (say, 200GB). This will use 200GB on your Time Capsule, but that space will be safe from being used up by Time Machine backups.

To read/write data to this disk image, open the Time Capsule drive in the Finder just like any other drive and double click on the disk image icon with the name you've chosen. It'll mount on your desktop like any other drive of 200GB in size (or whatever size you've specified); you may then copy/save/create/delete/etc. any data you choose on it.

As far as your Mac will be concerned, it'll be just another network-based disk volume. It'll all work rather well, and will prevent Time Machine from using up the whole Time Capsule device if that's what you want.

เท่าที่อ่านรู้สึกว่าจะไม่สามารถ partition ได้โดยตรง แต่สามารถสร้าง disk image บนตัว time capsule ได้นะคัรบ

1. Make sure you have enough free space in TC to fit the new partition.

The "Devices" list in a finder window should look like this:

2. Using the drop down menu, select "Back Up Now"

After a few seconds, like 3 in my case, finder will look like this:

Note: I'd already partitioned my TC, and named the new part ExHd, so you should only have a "back up of (your computer's name) disk in there.

access a folder or something on this Back up of..., like putting your foot in the door before the drive disappears. Leave this finder window open until the partition is complete. Then using the same drop down menu shown above (icon should be spinning now that we´re backing up), select stop backing up.




3. Open disk utility (see it in red)

Picture 4


select the TC icon (see it in red) from the list on the left, click on the partition tab (see it in blue).


Picture 6





4. there will be a "volume scheme" box that represents the drive´s space, and a tab above it, you can set the number of partitions to... well don't touch that.

5. instead, click the plus sign that is on the bottom of the box, this will keep the current info and add a partition to the drive, which you can rename to your liking. keep the default format (case sensitive something), unless you know what you're doing.

note that you can't rename the part of the drive that Time Machine already uses.

you can drag the line that divides the drive (the box) to determine the size of your new partition.

6. click apply, a message will come up, telling you that the drive will be resized, a new part created and that no data will be erased.

7. Whenever you want to access the new partition in your drive, simply prompt a backup, that will bring up both sections of the TC onto the finder, access the disk and stop the backup.
