Q: is this also compatible with other forms of MacBackup other than TimeMachine? I use Backblaze and other forms of backup. but not TimeMachine. I can not understand if this is compatible with any other ways of Backing up on a Mac???

A: I didn't try Blackblaze, but I just backed up my iMac with CarbonCopyCloner (850GB in about 18 minutes) and it worked perfectly. I don't see any reason it wouldn't work for you!
