If you cant fit a 250Gb or 500gb image onto onto your backup drive, you really need to rethink what you are backing up to. You should really make sure the backup will fit on the drive BEFORE you start
If the backup wont fit onto a single drive/tape, it really needs a rethink of the backup setup You get the same thing with commercial backup to tape, when the single tape capacity its no longer enough.Īs you mentioned, splitting backup across drives is not the best way, its adding another point of possible failure This is 100% normal to split the backup onto multiple devices if not enough space. Sometimes there is more data to backup than will fit on a single drive. I can only assume that it doesn't do any analysis of the recipient destination drive.

Slow on computers with 16GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM in each and a Ryzen 5 2400G in one and a Ryin the other computer receiving the cloned OS from the first computer.īut here's the beef, I cannot comprehend why Macrium would start to create an image if there is not enough free space available for it on the drive to which the image is being saved. It too almost 2 hours to complete and when I restored Macrium to restore the image in WinPE Mode to a new computers M.2 NVMe SSD that contained W10 Pro OS but it was faulty so it had to be replaced, that restore took almost 2 hours to complete. In the end I deleted both images and started the backup image process again. I tried putting both files into same folder on one HDD but still no joy trying to restore the image/s.
I couldn't open the 00-00 image to restore it to another M.2 SSD because it was incomplete. I ended up with a 227GB 00-00 image on one HDD and a 24GB 00-01 image on another HDD. I changed Destination disk (after deleting previous images to make enough space for the new image) and I expected the uncompleted Image to be moved to the new destination and for the image to be completed. Overall Progress Status was 99%, Current Progress 100%. Nope, I woke 4 hours later and onscreen is the Macrium Backup window stating "No space on destination" (Disk). I started the backup about 3am, when it showed it had 30 minutes to complete I went to bed letting the backup complete itself and I can use it when I wake. Monday I used Macrium 7 Free to full image the C Drive in my computer.
