Gentlemen,
Could I pick some good brains amonst us.
I've been a bottom feeder on the backup front, and have just cloned discs. Has saved me several times.
Now looking at incremental and differential backups from images.
Reading thru the tutorials from Todo and AEOMI. Both come to opposite conclusions. AEOMI says the most stable and reliable backup is incremental. Todo says differential is the safest way to go.
Virgin paranoia turning over my hard core bit per bit clone to an image.
Was seeking advice about the reliability of an image versus clone in event of a meltdown needing BIOS boot, and what is happening with incremental versus differential backups.
Thanks in advance. Seems like even the experts can't agree.
John
Noted that Todo and Macrium do not allow differential/incremental backups in the free versions. AEOMI does, for what it is worth.
