I have a number of 2008/r2 systems all set to run nightly full backups for bare metal restore purposes. In the backup logs in the "Data Transferred" section I see all 50 GB transferred for each backup. I thought that Win Server Backup only backed up changed blocks, in which case I would see far less data per backup?
Is this because I am backing up to a network share - and If I were to use Local storage my nightly backup would be only changed data and thus much smaller?
