[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1588265, member: 46727"] I don't have a definitive answer for you regarding which of your data is getting backed up, however, from our experiences with Time Machine, it will detect and backup changes that are not easily seen. An example would be when deploying a virtual machine which can encompass several GB or more. A small change within the VM will cause Time Machine to backup the entire VM. I don't know if that info helps or not, but you might start by excluding some things from your backups that you suspect to see if that reduces the amount. [/QUOTE]
