Performing incremental copies
When a new storage device is detected, Lyve Drive Shuttle will copy all files from the source. If the same
drive is connected again at a later date, Lyve Drive Shuttle will perform either a full or incremental copy,
depending on your copy settings.
Full
All files on the storage device are copied,
regardless of whether some or even all files on
the device were copied previously.
Incremental
Only new files on a previously ingested storage
devices are copied to Lyve Drive Shuttle.
Incremental copies can save storage space and
copying time.
