Like, how much time takes a backup?

Hi,

I'd like to make a backup, but I don't know how much time it takes. And what
files are backed up? My Documents? Windows? Program Files?
Users: 54,5 GB
My user folder: 10,2 GB
Public folder: 44,3 GB
Program Files: 10,7 GB
Windows: 8,10 GB
(All these are type: Size on Disk)

So, can anyone help me?

Re: Like, how much time takes a backup?

Like it depends on the speed of your computer, speed of your hard drives,
CPU speed, RAM type and speed, RAM timings and so on.

Just do it. It takes as long until it is finished.
