If you have done a backup when your computer was new, it will be very similar to a set of
recovery discs. There is always a chance that your computer manufacturer does something
unique on the recovery discs that you may want in the future, so making a set couldn’t hurt.

C6?
While Clickfree is searching for content to back up, it adds up the amount of disk space
needed and compares that with the free space on the C6. If there is not enough free space
for your content Clickfree will prompt you to change the Backup Settings to exclude one or
more folders from the backup or to remove a previously backed up PC.
