Backup - Will it copy over a cloned copy?
Thread needs solution

I have an internal disc and an external disc which are a direct copy of each other. I copied the contents of the external drive back to the internal drive - I've just replaced the internal drive. These are 6 TB drives with about 4 TB of data, so it takes a while to copy.
If I use the backup function in Acronis True Image 2017 to set the internal drive as the source and external as target, will the program start off by copying over the top of the existing external drive? Or does it compare the discs prior to copying files.
Thank you in advance.
