thanks, I'll give that a shot too! As long as incremental means it will skip
same files (based on size and date). I accidentally did a backup once and
thinking it was doing just that, it just cloned the one drive I had to the
other one deleting everything else. I lost a LOT of data. Thankfully I had a
backup from a few months earlier that I was able to recover most of what was
lost, but lost a few critical files and think I probably said more swear
words that day than all other days combined.
