Well, another three weeks have passed, so it is time for me to present my tri-weekly backup comparison results.  I was pleased to be able to test the new HBS version: 6.0.2.0. today.  It coincided nicely with the HBS "turn" in my tri-weekly testing cycle.  I had no control over the timing of that major version release, but I took full advantage of the serendipitous opportunity to test it immediately.

So, without further ado, here we go.

@garioch7,

Thanks again for providing the test results. Glad to see that Hasleo Backup Suite V6.0 has not introduced any performance degradation.

I have a small suggestion: perhaps the software version numbers should be indicated in the table, it took me a few seconds to find them.

Have a nice weekend!

Best regards,
