The point is having more than one in order to have duplicated and separated copies. You need also extra room for keeping differential backups, means for integrity checks both in the backup and the original, and keeping a history which goes back enough in the past. The idea is that if a file is corrupted today and you don t realize until 2017, you have a way to rebuild the data as it was just before the corruption. That means at least two hard drives (for having separated copies) that are in fact bigger than the original drive. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
