[QUOTE="R2D2, post: 852817, member: 64945"] You have a point. But consider this - in my case, incremental backups 4 times a day (each approx 4-6 hours apart) take only about 2 minutes each and the process runs in the background. Agreed my machine ain't a slouch and the backup hard disk is a WD Black but the biggest advantage of having full disk incremetals is it obviates the necessity to have a utility like Rollback RX which in my very limited trial experience was not as effective as made out to be. Effects of Virus/Trojan/Ransomware even screwed up driver or W10 updates can be negated in a matter of minutes. My MR disk images and data on each hard disk are also backed up on 2 NAS boxes that are kept switched off when not being used. I follow the same routine with my laptop and 2nd home PC. [/QUOTE]
