Well, that's special.
While I have the Untitled backup drive removed from Spotlight,
apparently Spotlight still has hold of the Time Machine folder on that
drive, /Volumes/Untitled/Backups.backupdb. And no matter what I do, I
can't seem to tell it not to index that folder. It always shows up in
the status as Indexing enabled. And killing the mds process doesn't
help because it springs right up again, possibly because Time Machine
is resurrecting it for its own use.
