![]() ![]() The release of Macrium Reflect 8 changes the behavior. While you could backup partitions with these file systems previously, previous versions of Macrium Reflect would do a sector by sector copy of the disk. Support for ReFS and ExFAT file systems has been boosted in the new version. Macrium Reflect Free - Probably the best ( Feb 2023 NO LONGER FREE) version for the average home user.Plenty of things have been improved under the hood.Veeam is still free and quite capable for home or business, just have to create an account to get the link to download ![]() You can probably get the free version still from places like MajorGeeks or similar if wanted, but soon those too will probably go away.īest to have some that does work for you. Personally, I think Macrium Reflect is worth purchasing. ![]() I'm using Macrium Free which is all I need for what I do with it. Usually though you only use the options you want/need, and once you have it set how you want then it soon becomes routine. There are lots of ways you can set Macrium to do different kinds of backups depending on just what you want/need. (I havent bothered changing that, there plenty of room on my backup drive) You can also set it so that if there is less than a certain amount of space left on the backup drive Macrium will delete the odest backup(s) to make enough room for the new one. How many you want to keep is up to you - that will depend on how often you backup, how much room each backup takes, how big the backup drive is, etc.Īs you can see here I keep 12 (weekly) backups: Say you set it to 10 then it will do 10 to start with, and then when you do the next one it will delete the oldest so you still have 10 backups. In the Macrium backup settings you can set how many backups you want to keep. I also do manual (copy/paste) data only backups to a network connected drive. I do full image backups from Macrium onto a 1TB external drive which is only connected for the backups. ![]()
