I live/travel fulltime in a RV and do a lot of photography and photo editing on a beefy laptop. I use Backup/Reflector to aperiodically make mirrors of my active 2 TB SSD to one of 3 USB drives (these are a portable 4 TB drive, a fireproof/shockproof 6 TB mounted in the RV, and a 8 TB stored at a relatives house). I use mirror with SafeMirrorDelete so I have an exact, browsable mirror of my system, plus copies of prior files in the SafeMirrorDelete hierarchy in case of catastrophe (which I occasionally prune). This works great and meets my objectives.
However, it seems like the backup process re-copies old files which have not changed, so the process takes way longer than it should. A summary of my backup settings is shown in the below image (you can see at the bottom that it is saving a large file which has not changed since 2017). Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks!
