Full backup or incremental?
I have backed up my c-drive using Acronis True Image 9.1 and chose the option : "Create new full backup archive" as opposed to "Create incremental backup" but I still got the backup listed on my external HDD as 12 separate incremental .tib files of 4194304 KB plus a 13th .tib file of 1413325 KB. i.e. nearly 52 GB even though my c-drive shows still only 23 GB full out of nearly 60 GB.
Q1. Should I be really getting 13 separate incremental .tib files rathder than 1 initial larger .tib backup file? If not, why not?
Q2. Why is the backup of size 52 GB even though only 23 GB is used up in my c-drive?

I have converted the external HDD to NTFS and then used Acronis to create a new full back up from scratch and all is well. A single .tib file has been created of size 18.3 GB, leaving about 80% free space on the external HDD.

Good to hear that it is all sorted out.
