Title: Two Incromental Backups of same hard drive.
Post by FromNashville on Aug 13^th, 2013 at 12:58pm

Ghost 15.0 Win XP

Currently each day I do a schedule Incremental backup to an internal hard drive.

My data is very important. I want to from time-to-time do a manual incremental backup to a different external hard drive.

Will the two incremental backups interfere with each other?

How does backup 1 know what has not been backup by backup 1 but has been backed up by backup 2?

@ FromNashville

You can do a One Time Backup to a different external HD. Any-time you like. This will be a full backup. Ghost 15 can only manage one "Recovery Point Set" at a time. All incremental backups for that set must be in the same folder.

What sort of data were you planning to backup to the different external HD?

The exact same data (hard drive) in backup #1.
