Excellent idea Walter, I just wish I had thought of that before I put
the folder full of pictures on the backup drive. The folder is about
60gigs, my main hard drive is only 40 gigs...so I have nowhere to put
the folder of pics while I reformat the backup drive into two partitions.

Any other ideas?

CCC can be set to backup your system to the larger partition as though it was a completely separate device with no risk to your special folder.
