Cloud Backup very slow and other issues
I am using Acronis cyber protect latest version (2023)
I have 2 harddisk drives in a Dell 8930 XPS desktop computer, 2 new disk drives were installed in this computer a few months ago.
Disk drive sizes and properties 4-2-23
C is 476 GB
149 GB is used,
326 GB history NTSF
D is 1.81 TB, NTSF
22.2 GB used,
1.79 TB 3
When I have made up a cloud backup of both drives in one backup, the backup takes more than 3 days and usually fails. The local backup is no problem, except that he gets behind cloud backup and sometimes never happens.
problem 1:
I want to make a cloud backup of both my installation partition in my current documents which is on a different disk.
What is the best way to handle this? I realize I don't really have to back up the C partition very often maybe weekly or less often. I would like to back up The D (data) disk drive every night. [I also make a local backup of both drives. But that doesn't take very long. I created a backup every 5 backups. I don't have trouble with that. It is the cloud backup that takes up so much time.]
2nd issue is that I would like to backup parts or all of my "2nd copy" files which are as files, all of the data files from the previous disk drive that failed. I don't necessarily have to back up all of them, I could pick out which ones are the most important and those which would have long filenames. But the file itself is all full of other files. I would prefer them to be backed up as an image so that long filenames are not a problem. Currently, this back up of my old drive exists as to copies onto external disk drives, (2 copies). I lost an Acronisstopped backup of this comptter because I unintentionally erased that drive when I was creating a rescue disk under Acronos.
Properties of that file:
ScndCpy89 (#3)185 GB (198,911,746,596 Bytes) 198 trillion
size on disk 185 GB; (199,232,602,112) bytes
contains 178,264 files in 9611 folders
