More info about this topic, please

This is interesting and just what I need to know.

I've been using SuperDuper to make a bootable copy of my Mac Mini drive to a FireWire drive, and to backup my big iPhoto and iTunes libraries, that are stored on a couple external hard disks.

I've created several encrypted sparsebundled images on the main external HD, and haven't backup anything to the other HD since then. I was wondering what was the right procedure to backup all of them using SD. On another forum I was directed to a different app (Synk Standard), but I'd prefer to stay with SD if possible

So please let me know if this procedure is correct: I should mount all the sparsebundled images before launching a backup. (If not, what would happen?)

Also, when SuperDuper finishes, the backup copy might have the sparsebundled images mounted, right? Then I manually unmount them to keep them safe.

THEN, when backing up again, what? Should I mount everything on the original AND the backup, in order to my Smart Update to work fine? If not, what would happen? SD would try to copy everything again? If so, maybe in future versions this might be done much easier?

Just a bunch of simple questions in order to be sure what not to do. Thank you in advance.
JJ
