Just bought a 5TB Passpoprt.
It took me about 30 min just to figure that WD Backup is no longer supported. WD didn’t bother to show any notification about this.
So I downloaded Acronis for WD, and trying to create my first full backup.
It’s been 5 minutes only saying “calculating the data size…” and “calculating time remaining”.
No progress bar so ZERO clue if it’s stuck or not.
Is this typical? This is a really POOR customer onboarding.
So after some more minutes, it finally started.
Is Acronis a good backup method?
What may I do to keep the full backup and avoid getting it deleted automatically by the program?
