How can include 2 External Drives (Mac: 500GB; Ext1: 500Gb, Ext2: 2TB) in the Time Machine backup (to a third disk: 5 TB).
The Apple documentation says:
"To stop excluding an item, such as an external hard drive, select the item and click the remove (–) button."
I need to include two external drives.
But the "stop excluding" option, i.e. remove(-) button works only for one of them.
(It's disabled after I chose the first one.)
Unless excluded Time Machine will include all properly formatted for Macs external drives. To force inclusion you can exclude the drives in the System/Time Machine preference pane, reboot, remove them from the excluded list and force a new backup.
Here are my two external HDs in the TM backup:
