Slowness when making a backup and restoring
I have installed an HD SSD on my PC (Samsung SSD 870 QVO SATA 2.5 '' '1TB) of that moment when I create an image using (R-Drive.image V.7.2 Compilation 7207) Using an SD-1GB card. Starting from the beginning boot, it starts well, but when you reach 39% it slows down and passes late 10 minutes to take 30 minutes, this problem also occurs when I try to restore an "image". Recod that I have this problem since I replaced my previous SSD HD (Kingston 240GB SSD) with the new (Samsung SSD 870 QVO Sata 2.5 '' 1TB). Despite taking a long time to create and restore a backup, R-Drive.image ends correctly. Sorry for my English evil.

I would appreciate if you also did this, the team is already looking at this problem but perhaps they need additional logs, I'm sure they would appreciate that
There is a way to circumvent the slowlyness but may not be optimal for everyone (check other thread), so please log and create the necessary dumps for them
---------
Contact techsupport with system dumps when image creations are fast and slow. About -> Write system dump.
Also create an additional log file after everything is finalized (dump+log)

(How to make it fast means you would have to re-partition your drive making OS partition much smaller, not optimal but would likely fix the problem, the issue is likely larger storage SSD's and related to how much free space there is, but that's only my conclusion, my backup times went from nearly 30 minutes down to approx 2 minutes for a base OS image after a simple re-partition to 500GB rather than default 4TB of my SSD)

Re: Slowness when making a backup and restoring
My backups are very slow.
I have an M2 SSD holding about 1.4Tb data, which I back up to a NAS over a 2.5GB ethernet connection.
It takes about 7.5 hours, either with image compression level set to Fastest or Smallest.
Acronis True Image backs it up in 4h.
How can I get R-Drive to go faster?

Re: Slowness when making a backup and restoring
Backing up to NAS is always a slow process so these issues aren't related to that,Guest wrote: ↑Sat Feb 08, 2025 2:54 pmMy backups are very slow.

my findings are with internal or external SSD (really fast ones to) where you can impact speed of backup with several hundred percent depending just how your source is partitioned versus free space, R-Drive being much much faster with less free space involved
I have a Synology NAS myself and usually add contents via USB instead and backup to attached SSD's, so no ethernet or WiFi involved, I would recommend that instead with terabytes of data or in a hurry
Re: Slowness when making a backup and restoring
We're aware of this problem and currently investigating into it.
