Hello! Just finished doing my weekly backup and I noticed that I only have 4mb left on my 1TB back up drive. My main drive is 232gb (250gb advertised), and I have 220gb used on that drive. I have the back up set to make a system image and backs up the entire C: drive (the 232gb one). The system image takes 217gb, which makes sense. However, the other back up file takes up 455gb, even though it's backing up 220gb of data! Has anyone else have this problem?
Edit: Just noticed that the total amount of non back up data on my system is about 463gb, a little over that single back up file. Is it possible that the computer is backing up the back up drive and the main drive even though it's set to only back up the main drive?
P.S. Running Windows 7.
Nevermind! Apparently Windows keeps each previous back up and only adds new files to the backup file, or something of that nature. I guess this is a nice feature for those who want it, but I rather Windows just delete the old file and back up the main drive as-is. Oh well!
