Full Backup

Thread needs solution

I have a laptop with a 500g ssd drive. I am making a daily full backup to a large 6G backup drive.. Does anyone see any issues doing the backup like this vs full and a series of incremental backups. I also cannot find clear instructions on restoring the incremental backup copies. I have tested restoring the full and it works fine. If I have incremental copies must they be restored each separately?

Sumu, welcome to these public User Forums.

To recover / restore any incremental backup version chain, you just need to select the recovery point (by date & time of when the incremental was created) and ATI will work backwards through the chain and restore all the other data required for the complete backup.

Thanks - I will then conclude that if I have 4 incremental and a full it will work backwards and restore all 4 incremental and the full for a complete recovery. As long as I select the proper date of last incremental.
