the drive since the last backup.
Incremental recovery point of recent
changes
Select this option if you want to start a

Adjusting the speed of a backup
Depending on the speed of your computer, how much RAM you have installed,
and the number of programs you are running during a backup, your computer
could become sluggish.
You can manually adjust the effect of a backup on the performance of your
computer to match your needs at the moment. This feature is useful if you are
working on your computer and don't want the backup process to slow you down.
