- Any idea if one can do an initial comprehensive backup to tape, then do
- incremental backups to floppy?
-
- I've recently gotten a large hard drive at home and at work we have a DAT tape
- drive. I was wondering if I could take the external drive to work, back up the
- entire drive, then perform incremental backups at home to floppy.
-
- I suppose I could do the initial backup to to tape, then at future times at home
- just do a backup of everything that has a date later than the initial backup. I
- could see some files not being caught that way, but it should be most of them.
