NTBackup

[Splash1950]

I have a 120Gb removable hard drive and the limitation of
FAT32 to a 4Gb backup file is frustrating.
Is there not some switch or variable that will allow
NTBackup to simply create as many 4Gb files as needed.
You know like when floppies were the order of the day, it
would simply ask for a new disk and continue.
There should be a way for NTBackup to write 4Gb segments
and be able to address an entire system backup. Without
me doing it piece-meal by folder selection.

What do you think? Or Know?

Change the format.

Hello,


You can convert the volume to NTFS and backup the entire volume or you can
select different folders in order to stay below the 4gb limit.
