The verification is running for over a day
I'm at the end of my free trial (three days left) and I need help with the verification process. When I first installed True Image I had verification turned on at it ran for hours after the backup. Not only that, it would fail and then run another incremental backup. After five of those failed, it would run a nother full backup. Needless to say, my backup drive filled up rather quickly. So, I set the verification to run once a month to see if that would help. As it turns out, the verfication on the first backup job (I run two backups) is still running after 36 hours (I've since stopped it and it is still in the stopping step). The verification I set up for the second backup job is no longer checked for whatever reason.
So, I'm wondering, what is going on here? Is it normal for the verification to run for over a day? If so, is it safe to run the backups without the verification step? Or, should I be looking for a different backup product? I'm considering unistalling True Image and seeing how Crashplan works.
Any suggestions? Am I doing something wrong? Or is this just something that True Image does? I honestly don't know.
Thanks!
