USB backup drive full - What happens next?

  • Hi,


    I realized the USB drive I use for the USB backup plugin is completely full and possibly has been for a while. The data disk / shared folder which is backupped by this USB disk is not full yet (they have the same size).
    Therefor I think the USB drive was not empty when I first used it to for USB backup or some considerable changes in filenames happened (and I have a lot of duplicates on the USB drive).


    Since I did not realize this until now I wonder if I missed any error or log pointing to this problem. What happens in case the USB drive used for USB backup runs full?
    Also, how exactly does the rsync command in USB backup work? Will existing files be deleted if they don't exist on the data disk anymore? Does the data really "flow" only in one direction (data disk >> USB drive)?


    Maybe I was using USB backup incorrectly? I'm ready to get educated.
