Use this option to back up an entire drive (for example, your
system drive which is typically C). You can then restore any
file, folder, or your entire drive.
Drive-based backup
Use this option to back up only the files and folders that
you select. You can then restore any file or all of them at
any time.
This option typically requires less disk space than
drive-based backups.

About drive-based backups
When you run a drive-based backup, a snapshot of everything is taken and stored
on your computer's hard disk. Each snapshot is stored on your computer as a
recovery point. A recovery point is a point in time that is used to restore your
computer back to the way it was when the recovery point was created.
The types of recovery points are as follows:
Creates a complete, independent copy of the drives that you
select. This backup type typically requires more storage
space.
Independent recovery point
(.v2i)
Includes a base recovery point. A base recovery point is a
complete copy of your entire drive, and is similar to an
independent recovery point. The recovery point set also
includes recovery points that capture only the changes that
are made to your computer since the creation of the base
recovery point.
Recovery point set (.iv2i)
Although you can recover files and folders from a drive-based backup, you cannot
select a specific set of files or folders to back up. Your entire hard drive is backed
up.
About file and folder backups
If you want to edit or create a select set of personal documents and folders and
you do not want to use hard disk resources to back up your entire computer, you
can define a file and folder backup. Or, you might want to define a file and folder
backup to capture one or more folders that contain the files that you change on
a regular basis.
File and folder backups let you select individual files or folders to back up. You
can also specify a file type to back up and let Norton Ghost locate and back up all
files of the type you specified. For example, if you have Microsoft Word documents
