No compression (this helps speed it up - using compression really slows it down) Source files: Over 825 GB of NEF, PSD, TIF and JPG files in 350 folders. Here are hardware and software specifics…īackup hard drive (output) is 1 TB SATA-2 (internal) - installed in the computer.ĪVG is active but not a factor (other non-photo backup tasks run very fast). Also, I “direct connect” the backup (output) hard drive inside of the computer - I use the normal SATA-2 internal connections ( But, even breaking up the job into 2 separate Acronis “Tasks” does not help enough. However, for the photo image files (about 825 GB in about 350 folders - NEF, PSD, TIF, JPG) Acronis TI 10 will literally run for “days” - if I don’t break up the job into multiple tasks (do a certain amount of images per task). Image partitions, I create hard drive “images” of each partition. I backup 2 computers using Acronis True Image 10. The hardware specs and the TI 10 settings are also listed below.īackups on 4 separate SATA-2 (internal) hard drives. Below you will see what I've done so far. I am looking for some ideas for getting Acronis TI 10 to run faster for backing up a large volume of photo images (over 825 GB in 350 folder).
