Time Machine begins backing up your files. The first backup may take some time, but

items.
Time Machine backs up your computer every hour and keeps the following backup sets:
Every hour for 24 hours
Every day for the past month
Weekly until the WD Sentinel drive is full.
Note: If a backup is interrupted, for example, if the computer goes into sleep mode,
it will resume automatically once the computer is available.
To see information such as available capacity and the date and time of the oldest, latest, and
next backup, select Open Time Machine Preferences on the Time Machine drop-down
