Full Backup - Multiple External Drives

Post by MrCheese »

I am using Cobian Reflector and am wanting to perform full backs onto multiple external USB drives which are swapped over each day.
I have currently set a Task with Backup Type set to Full Backup, and not selecting separated backup option.
This all works fine, however, due to the large amount of data, this is taking a very long time to complete.
I am wanting to know the best option so only new and changed files copy, instead of re-copying everything that is already on the destination.
I am unsure of the other Backup Types to use when swapping disks, as I feel I will not get all files onto each disk each day using those options.
Seeking comment on the best way this should be done.
Thanks.

Incremental backup is the one to select.
