Backup file size
Posted: Sun Feb 20, 2022 3:06 pm
I've been using IFW for over a decade (thank you oh Terabyte Wizards!). Back then, I confined individual backup file size to 2GB as some of my systems had that limitation. Never changed it. My thinking was also that it was easier to restart a copy of a backup in the middle with multiple files. But copies have gotten faster, machines more capable. I recently let an 80GB backup go to a single file, and it seems like it ran faster> Are there really any pros/cons to file size today? Thanks!
