Auto backup from windows to freenas

[Bjrocket]

I have a Gaming PC that I want backed up regularly to my 4tb Nas. My nas is running Freenas as the OS and I want the backup to only add new files that weren't on the previous backup so it won't take up much space on the NAS.

AFAIK the best way to do this is with shadow copy.

Thought I'd add a pointer to the relevant info

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/wbadmin-start-backup

 

FYI here is a script I would call to backup my OS drive to a backup drive. If I passed the /s it would shutdown when done.

Spoiler

@echo off
setlocal

TITLE Saving OS image

set SOURCE=c:
set TARGET=d:

wbadmin start backup -allCritical -include:%SOURCE% -backuptarget:%TARGET% -quiet

if "%1"=="/s" goto _shutdown
if "%1"=="/S" goto _shutdown

exit

:_shutdown
shutdown /s /hybrid
echo.
echo Shutting down. Press any key to abort.
pause > nul
shutdown /a

Just saying this is the exact same thing as backup and restore windows 7 in windows 10. This is just the cmd version. There is a gui version that will work fine aswell and work the exact same way.

Hmmm. Have I stagnated since XP much?
