[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 546089"] Not entirely true if you mean the previous backup gets wiped with the new one. So unless I misread or misunderstood, when you buy your licence the whole SuperDuper! backup options become available including scheduled backups, simply adding only the newer files to your previous backups, etc. I use that option, keeping the previous backup and only updating files if they have been modified or are brand new files. Of course this makes for a backup that grows in time: I usually check the entire backup and when I spot things I have no further use for because they have been copied over on DVD, for example, I delete them from the SuperDuper! backup. If you use SuperDuper! only as a freebie then yes the only backup option available to you is to wipe the previous backup and create a new backup from scratch on top of the older one. [/QUOTE]
