My Question is of understanding Incremental Backup. How does this work,

Does it go by new files added or activate on file size.

Its a backup that copies all the data added/changed since the last full backup or incremental backup.

Didnt quite understand what you mean by activate on file size ???

i think what you may be wondering is what the difference between differential and incremental, Incremental will backup everything since your last backup, whatever type it was. Diffrenetial backs up everything since your last full backup!

hope this helps
