I stick with the defaults of incrementals every day, fulls every 7 days.
I save a lot of backups. For FullKeepCnt, I use: 5, 3, 14, 7, 7, 7
which saves years worth of backups. My data is fairly static, so it's
working so far (although I haven't hit the 1-year mark yet). I have
FullAgeMax set to 2920.
