Setting backup options

1
If you are using Windows Server 2008 or later and you do not want to back up only used blocks on a partition, click Create New next to the Plugin Options list.
2
Clear the Back up used blocks only for NTFS partitions option.
This option lets you back up only the used blocks on the partition, which can save a considerable amount of space and time. For example, if a machine has a 10GB “C:” drive and only 6GB is used, selecting this option backs up 6GB because this amount is the actual used space. The Back up used blocks only for NTFS partitions option is selected by default. If you clear this option, a discrepancy (4K) between the backup data and the size of the NTFS volume might be reported in the binary log; this feature is working as intended, and does not affect a restore.

Click Save to save the set.
4
In the Create New Set dialog box, specify a name for the set, and click Save.
The name can contain alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters, but it cannot include non-English characters. On Windows®, there is no length restriction; however, a maximum of 40 characters is recommended.
