Hi,
Depends on the software; WD Smartware or WD Backup.
With Smartware you have option of Category or Frequency of backup. In both cases you can select either Continuous or Scheduled backups. I’m not clear on this whether it is incremental or full backup. It appears to be that only changed files are backed-up, which would be incremental. Check the Help tab for details. Also you can de-select whatever does not really need backing up to free up space!
With Backup you do not have Category option; only Frequency, but you can select which files to include. Also, you can select an older backup to recover a file or folder that may have been deleted on the PC. Again, you can de-select whatever you don’t need to backup and so free up space.
I was having trouble on my passport, so I de-selected the Program areas in the C: drive and also “downloaded” files. Works for me.
