ericdavis25 Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 In doing a drive "duplicate" on a 2TB RAID, it takes a couple of days if you include the verify/compare part. Is it better to verify and only be able to do a duplicate every 2 days, or to not verify and be able to duplicate every day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Without verify, you don't know for sure if the files got copied correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericdavis25 Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 just to confirm, it's better to only be able to run the backup every 2 days (with a verify) versus every day (without a verify)? I suppose running it more often doesn't really make a difference if you never check (verify) that it was successful... thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next duplicate will just copy the files that has been added or changed. So I will suggest a Duplicate WITH verify every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
