What size?

I revived my old 2007 imac.
Upgraded the CPU (T9300) and fitted 240GB SSD and a 250GB HDD in optical bay.

Relocated my home folder the the HDD.

Now my old TM drive is not big enough.
It was 500GB as only had a 320GB internal.

So I need min 500GB to cover the two new drives?
1TB be better for keeping snap shots etc.

1TB is £49.99.
But not much more the get a 2TB? It only adds £20 to cost
Is it worth going to 2TB?

I'm using about 30GB of the SSD and about 90GB on the HDD
I have lots of old CDs I am uploading to the mac soon but they mp3 so should not take up drastic space.
