I am using File storage to backup my work stations and servers with the

Today is the end of the first 29 days that have had BareOS running and I
have 336 Incremental volumes (Full backups are around 49GB).

Would it be better to have a larger volume size and fewer volumes?
Yes absolutely, with a too big number of volumes it start to be really hard to
have a mental representation about what is on what and where.

If you decide to change your volume size, think to update the already written
with the command update volume (see doc for details)


Bruno,

Thanks for the info.


Do you know what a good typical size for a disk based volume should be? Should I try to size my volume so that each incremental backup will fit in one volume?
