I want only modified files to be backed up

Right now whenever I backup, all my files get backed up, even the ones that were not modified. :frowning: Not good. Takes way too much time.

Here’s what I want to do. I want only those files backed up which were modified since the last backup.

So what settings do I need to change to make that happen. In my WD Smartware software there are 2 options. Which one of the below options do I choose to make it happen?

  1. File backup
  2. Category backup

Thanks for any help or tips.

By default WD Smartware created the 5 copy of the backup which you can change in the settings of the WD Smartware and the continuous backup would be the best approach for you.
