Backup file size 1.5 times greater then overall used space on hard drive

Thread needs solution

I am using ATI 2016 on MAC. Do backup of full disk, no partitions, nothing fancy.

Total spaced used 342G, backup file size is 493G. Why backup is 1.5 times more then original data?

Sounds like your backup choice was to include unused sector or a sector by sector backup.  That option is not necessary.

Thank you for prompt response, but it's ATI for Mac, it have VERY limited set of options, you can set Schedule, Encription and Exclusions - that's it.

Hello Artem,

Thank you for your posting! Please be aware that Acronis True Image for Mac stores backup versions in one single file, thus every new backup version will increase the size of the archive.

Thank you,
