Replica Option on Full Disk Backup
I'm using Acronis True Image and I want to know more about the new "Replica" option on Backups.
I have a full backup of my system drive to a local disk array a couple of times a week.
If I select the Replica option for this backup, will True Image send the full backup data to the cloud each time or does it have some method of sending only the changes? Remember the backups locally are always full backups & there are nearly 2 TB of data. I need full backups. I like the idea of having the data in the cloud in addition to my local copy, but it would take days for the data to transfer. And since True Image can only handle one backup on a system at a time (aside from replicas) I can't afford to have my other backups queuing waiting for the full backups to complete. Yes I understand I would have to suffer this pain for the first backup. But what about subsequent ones?

Thanks Steve and Enchantech. I think I'll avoid replicas until the software is a bit more mature and they are able to pick up where they left off if the connection is lost.
