| Some MAC users like to set Time Machine's backup disk as an external disk. This was originally intended to save MAC disk memory, but users did not notice that Time Machine in this case back to the default stored in the internal drive This causes a waste of memory. So, how to solve this problem? Solution: 1. Open the terminal application (Applications \u0026ndash; Utilities \u0026ndash; Terminal). 2. Enter the following command to disable the local backup store (entering the system administrator password): Sudo tmutil disablelocal 3. If you want to re-enable the local backup function, enter the following command to restore (you need to enter the system administrator password): Sudo tmutil enablelocal Please note that once the local backup storage function is disabled, the backup will no longer be stored in the internal disk, so once the external disk used for backup fails, it may lose its last straw. In any case, it is safe to ensure that there are at least two copies of important data in different places. This is how to turn off Time Machine's local backup function. However, for the safety of users' data, Xiaobian does not recommend that users turn this feature off. Some MAC users like to set Time Machine's backup disk as an external disk.
