can it be used for backing up 2 devices?

If you're using Time Machine for Mac, you should be able to backup multiple devices to one drive as long as you have enough space on the drive. It's not necessary to partition the drive for each computer's backup, but it is recommended (so your backup data doesn't get mixed up and corrupted).

One drive-likely no problem. You could try attaching 2 drives and might be fine, I am not sure. Again, to be safe, buy a "powered"hub.

It is unlikely. Typically it's one source to the outputs...in this case, you can switch that source between 2 devices.

Absolutely not! You can do this at any time. I also bought a different one as a backup and hated it because of all the stipulations that are advertised as bells and whistles. I love this device and wouldn't use anything else. So simple.

Yes. Each backup type (i.e., different drive) requires a different "script" and you can create as many scripts as you want. I backup to one internal drive and two external drives.

I'm not sure. I haven't opened up the casing or tried anything like daisy-chaining. However, you likely could, and if not you can always backup 2 separately. Again, as far as a daisy chain, I don't know.

YES. Depends on the config, as long as the drive letter is the same you can create different sub-folder to store the backups. If your backups are on a schedule, be sure you have the drive connected to the correct device in the right day/night.

You can output to 2 devices. But it can only have 1 input going to those 2 devices at a time.

Multiple ways to set up the 2 cards. Yes, you can simply use 1 card as a backup -- recording same thing on both cards. Can also use 1 card for stills and 1 video.

I'm using it for two computers but I'm manually backing them up. I never use the built in software.

Yes, the device can be used as a NAS (Network Attached Storage) if you connect a USB HHD, SD card, USB drive. I am not sure if it has a program to do automatic backups, but it will serve as the NAS no problem!

I only used this with a Mac, it had to format to the Mac, not sure it can to two devices.

Absolutely. This is a phenomenal unit and you can actually install two of these in the same space as one. Doing that enables you to use the gps while backing up and you use the other one to monitor while you backup. I find the gps and rear view camera enable me to actually travel to work at full reverse speed since forward doesn't work in my truck anymore. I encourage you. Install 2!

Have not tried that, my guess would be no, though if you had the right connectors, it may be possible, not sure. I know it works real well as to recovering from one drive.

It will back up the computer it is connected to and the files you identify for backup. I don't think you can partition the Clickfree drive so all your files from 2 or more computers would be lumped together. I prefer a separate backup for each computer.

Sure, you can use an external enclosure and use it as a backup drive. Just remember that it's a 2.5 inch drive (like in laptops), not a regular 3.5 inch (like in a pc).Cheers

Yes, I use it for that. I did use apple disc utility and partitioned mine for 1tb to be used specifically for time machine though. If you need all 4 for just backups it should work. That seems excessive though to me
