I agree with everything that Wayne and Ed said.
3 months is waaay too long between full backups.=20
Try to work out how many of those incrementals you'll have to apply when=
=20
you need to do a full system restore to the day *before* your quarterly ful=
l=20
backup is due to run. You should really try to do fulls at least once a=20
week.
Also, the 1 week retention on your daily backups is too small. Somebody=20
*will* want that spreadsheet/mailbox/mp3 restored from "Wednesday 2 weeks=
=20
ago".
