The Backup Disk Status changes to Sped and the virtual disk icon on the desk goes away after 
the backup disk ss. 
 Note 
You may have to wait several minutes for the backup disk to s. Please be patient. If the backup 
disk does not s and it appears to hang, it could be because an application or other process is 
accessing the backup disk in the background. If this is the case, attempt to eject the disk using 
Finder.

You cannot select Resize until the disk is sped and the disk size is changed.
