Yes, your are correct about the time stamp, but I just mark those files to
be excluded from future back ups. That is easy enough to do along with
other files and folders such as photos, videos and books that will never
want to be repeatedly backed up.

Sounds like you might benefit from some syncing application for your backups,
if you have lots of files you don't want to back up repeatedly (because they
haven't changed). I use synctoy to "back up" my D: partition (cycling round
two or three backups, though that's not relevant to this discussion); other
sync utilities are available.

I use Allway Sync
