need larger image backup slices

Post by zephyr98 »

hi:
ive been trying to use the file slicer feature on making backup. but the biggest is 7.5gib slices for the output image. how do i get 2tib or even 8tib slices. being able to make a super nice image of a jumbo raid is a very nice thing.

In the File Size window, just type 2T or 8T (or whatever size you want, only the first letter of the unit is required). It even seems* to understand P and E as Petabytes & Exabytes (but not Z or Y as Zettabytes or Yottabytes, at least not yet).

*I say seems since it then displays P as PiB and E as EiB, but I don't have the hardware to test anything that size. If you happen to have some Petabyte drives you want to give me, I'll be glad run the test! :-)
