Can I Resize a Time Machine partition without wiping out the existing contents?

Hi.  The MyBook Live Duo UI provides a means to adjust the amount of the “disk” allocated for the time machine partition.  Can that be adjusted “on the fly”?  I have an existing set of backups there that I don’t want to lose but I need now to increase the size of that backup partition and it is not clear if adjusting that slider in the UI will invoke some sort of re-partition/re-format of that partition.

Thanks,

Hi there,

Since time machine normally backs up every hour you can do this before a backup, the partition on the share will not change, If the amount of space is increased, it should remain the same.
