I have an old computer with a ton of important data. This computer has two drives, each is a 40 gig scsi with 5-7 gigs free space. I purchased a new 1 terabyte external hard drive and created a shared directory on it to backup the computers on my home network. My first computer, which has hundreds of gigs free space, backed up fine to its shared directory. This computer with the smaller drives, though, reported that it did not have enough free disk space to backup.
What the heck? It's a 1 terabyte drive. So, i went and checked and found out that you need as much *free space* on the drives to be backed up as you need space on your backup media. How the heck is that useful? I have drives loaded with old pictures and things, and I have a 1 terabyte hard drive. Please tell me how I can get onecare to backup the data like it is supposed to be doing.
Thanks!
