tection, specify whether or not you want to re-use the
existing backup or create a new one. See Fig. 7.2.D.
If you select
Re-use the existing backup
, you must
select which backup to re-use from the list. When
you select an item from the list, the size also ap-
pears to help you identify exactly which back-
up to use. The word “Preferred” appears for the
backup that best matches the disk that you’re cur-
rently protecting. Once you have selected the de-
sired backup, click
Next
and go to the next step.
If you select
Create a new backup
and click
Next
,
you must select the desired backup location as de-
scribed in step 4.

the network connection refreshes the information
about the backups that exist on the Ethernet Disk

CAUTION:
If you select any disk other than
the preferred one, all the data associated with the
selected disk will be overwritten with the data as-
sociated with the disk that you’re protecting, and
you will not be able to recover any previous back-
ups associated with the selected disk.
