If I had a local drive that was big enough, I wouldn't be using the NAS.
By the way, this doesn't seem to have happene…

Yes, Buffalo LS210D 2TB NAS

I did not choose any settings. I used whatever the default is.
However, upon inspecting that window, it shows Intelligent Sector Backup as checked. -
Is this the picture that you wanted?

OK, here it is: I didn't notice your suggestion to resize to small, so you gete full screen.
No I can't You have seen the results of my attempts to upload a screenshot. I don't know why, but it is not possible to do.
Does it have to be a certain size? A certain file type??The C: drive is not encrypted and the file system is NTFS
The total space of the disk I am backing up is 985 GB, of which I am using 231 GB.
The total size of the backup file is 466 GBIt barfed again. I just want to know why the backup file is so freaking big. Now the first incremental backup is 167MB and I know I didn't change that much ...
Is there a problem with jpg images for upload??<img=
My apologies for the garbage. I hope I can edit it away...
I tried a drag-and-drop, and got a message: Validate Required even though I had validated it.

I do not get an error message when I post a picture. It just doesn't post.
At the top of the window it says: totalNum 1: upload complete 0<…Problem solved.
It turns out that the Buffalo NAS has it's own time setting independent of sytem time. Weirdest thing I ever saw. I went in and changed the time and it's ok now.
--@admin I have attached the log directory (zipped) to this message.

Both are formatted. Target disk is a Buffalo NAS 2TB using XFS. Internal drive is 500GB and uses NTFS (normal for Win 10).
I found the same problem on my other computer, and it defragmented every week. I don't think that's the answer. (Note: It defragged every week two days before the backup.)
If you are talking about the disk that is accepting t…

@Charlie, that's good to know, but not relevant to the question. It might explain the 4.50GB, but not the 8.12GB.
The backup works just fine. It's able to be explored, etc. It's just that it contains 4.50 GB of information and takes up 8 GB on the disk.
((Also, use of Flash is strongly discouraged by Firefox, and you shouldn't be requiring it t…
It would be nice if the user's manual (pdf and online) mentioned that...
