Please advise if when using Differential and one wants to Restore and has several Differential backups is it true that only one Differential is needed for Restore. I.e., one can safely delete older Differential files and just keep the latest to Restore if desired? This is the way Reflect performs.
Many Thanks.
Yes, your understanding is completely correct. When using differential backups, each differential backup contains all changes since the last full backup, so only the latest differential backup plus the corresponding full backup are needed for restoration. Old differential backups can be safely deleted. The same applies to Hasleo Backup Suite.
Have a nice day!
