Using the backup facilities of windows 7, would doing an image backup of the
harddrive interfere with scheduled incremental backups backing up all the
changed files?
I was checking out a friends backup scheme, and thought that having a second
external drive for occsaional image backups would be a good idea. That drive
would be stored elsewhere, as opposed to the drive she uses connected to the PC
all the time.
My worry is that the image backup might change the bits that tell the other
scheduled backup whether it should include files as "changed" from the last
pass. I'm not sure that is how current backups are regulated these days.
Would using a program like the Seagate Diskwizard for the image backup make any
difference?
Pointers to pages discussing these issues could be helpful also.
