Back-up file twice the size of original
Hello, All
Looked around before posting, couldn't find exact issue
ATI 2016 Build 6581
I have a 1 TB disk drive in my laptop, win 8.1 i7 Dell, files on disk around 450 Gb, formatted a second 1 Tb drive in a caddy, backed up original, size on backup drive over 900 gb. No room left for incrementals. Settings check "sector by sector" unchecked "Back up unallocated space", these are the same settings I used on previous laptop, Asus, however backed up to internal second drive instead of caddy. Where am I going wrong? Possible I formatted the caddy drive incorrectly?
Thanks--
Al

Yes, sector by sector is checked. I'll change that. On the last laptop, the 1 TB drives were partitioned into 2/ 500 GB , so the unallocated was very little, 400+ GB on a 500 GB partition, compaired to currently 400+ on a 1 TB partition. That must be the difference. Thanks a lot for getting back to me so quickly.

Al, you should see a significant difference in the backup sizes without having sector by sector enabled.
