Josh1565 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've been on Retro 6 forever and we are now evaluating going to 10. Is there still a restriction on drive size whereby drives over 1TB have to be split into 1TB partitions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abb668b8-e67d-45d2-8fe4-b2a87dc2831e Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 There is no restriction that I've found on Retrospect 10 for destination or source volume size. We are backing up to a 25 TB raid. Each computer that we back up has it's own media set on that raid which allows Retrospect to use separate threads for each backup. Three of our computers have 6 TB internal raids that are sources for backups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 That old 1TB limit was for "file" backup sets. File backup sets are now obsolete. (I don't even know if they still exists.) You should now use "Disk" media sets instead. As Backup Zen pointed out: There is no 1TB limit on those. "Disk" media sets support "grooming" where the oldest backups of each source can be deleted (groomed out) while keeping the last backups.
