How much space is needed on the backup storage media?
This depends on the settings. Supposing the default settings remain effective (backup interval 15 minutes, 100 generations of each file, 14 days storage time) and 4 office work files (size of about 2 MegaBytes together) are continuously modified during a work day of 8 hours, then a data volume of max. 900 MegaBytes would result (nearly 1 GigaByte). Corresponding calculation: 32 intervals/day x 14 days x 2MB. Or in consideration of the restriction of 100 generations (versions) per file, a data volume of 200 MegaBytes would result (calculation: 4 files x 100 versions x 0.5 MB). Usually though, office work files are smaller in size and are not modified permanently. Furthermore, due to the data compression the space needed will be reduced. On the contrary image and audio files may need more space since these files are larger and can hardly be compressed. Additionally, more space is needed if more file generations should be stored for a longer time period. Conclusion: a few GigaBytes per us
