Why does MR report the I/O Performance as Gb/s or Mb/s? Such data to me indicates gigabits per send which is not equal to gigabytes per second. To some this could be very confusing. Does the fact that this is a British company account for this? I'd think that data like this would be universal rather than cultural.

Maybe I'm confused! A computer working at 2.5 gigabytes / second would be mighty fast. I should delete this post!

Gb/s is Giga bits not bytes. GB/s would be GigaBytes/s

    I'm a computer enthusiast so have quite a few systems that I run. More like an advanced hobby.

It certainly would, but Reflect is reporting by default in bits per second, not bytes.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update.

    My SYSTEM THREE is a Dell Latitude 5410, i7-10610U, 32GB RAM, 512GB NVMe ssd, supported device running Windows 11 Pro (and all my Hyper-V VMs).

    My SYSTEM FOUR is a 2-in-1 convertible Lenovo Yoga 11e 20DA, Celeron N2930, 8GB RAM, 256GB ssd. Unsupported device: currently running Win10 Pro, plus Win11 Pro RTM and Insider Beta as native boot vhdx.

    My SYSTEM FIVE is a Dell Latitude 3190 2-in-1, Pentium Silver N5030, 4GB RAM, 512GB NVMe ssd, supported device running Windows 11 Pro, plus the Insider Beta, Dev, and Canary builds as a native boot .vhdx.

Always been that way - argument is speeds compare against a fixed parameter - all network cards are quoted in mbps or Gbps.

It is kind of meaningless as most backup via drives rather than networks.

I think it all comes down to marketing - 1 Gbps just sounds better than 125 mBps.

Of course, there is the perennial GB of a drive versus GiB issue to further muddy things.

The Free version doesn't get this detailed. Thanks for everyone's comments. Oops, I found where it was buried!

The v8.0 free version is exactly the same software as the paid for version. It's only the installed licence key that determines whether the premium features are enabled or not. If you have not yet tried any Premium features, then if you try to use one v8.0 Free will offer to turn into the 30 day v8.0 trial. At the end of the trial it reverts back to Reflect Free. Just don't let it update to v8.1 or you won't be able to go back to Free.

If you change the installed key to a purchased one then it becomes Reflect Home. In fact, I've done that on one of my machines, removing a licence from one of my old machines and installing it in another that already had Reflect Free. I've left it as v8.0.7783 for now, just in case I later decide to remove the key. Reflect v8.0 reverts to Reflect Free if you remove the key, Reflect v8.1 will uninstall when you remove its key.
