I know there is not much as far as telling time machine what folders to backup, but how can you specify to restore files that are contained inside of a database? I know that Mysql holds the database files in "/usr/local/mysql/data/dbname". However I could not navigate to that folder location while in time machine. I have recovered my data by removing the new SSD and installing the original HD but this may come up again and I just want to be prepared. While it was not hard to do what I didi, you should be able to use Time Machine backups to restore any file. I happen to backup my machine religiously twice a week.

TIA
