Thank you!
Now, when I read that 4 MB block size is recommended for backup files larger than 16 TB, I went to look at the job that backs up our file server (which has a full backup size of approx. 21 TB), and that job actually uses 4 MB blocks. So, I guess that back in the day, when I created that job, I somehow had information about that it would be good if I used 4 MB, although I had forgotten all about it now...![Wink ;-)]()
And in all the other jobs, the backup files are nowhere near 16 TB, so I guess it's all good.![Smile :-)]()
Kind regards,
PJ
