Time Machine begins backing up your files. The first backup may take some time, but
subsequent backups are faster because Time Machine only backs up new or changed

Time Machine backs up your computer every hour and keeps the following backup sets:

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.
