Paragon backup and recovery software...

I have backed up my HDD, and iam now doing differential backups.
But this will keep on going on forever or till i run out of space on my external hard drive.

So is it ok to delete the old differential backups and just leave the current one

This is what the help says:

"...every new differential backup is compared with the base archive. So it contains all the files that were changed/created comparing to the base archive, even if these files were included in the previous differential backup already. Therefore you don't have to store all the previous differential backups to be able to restore the last one."

Therefore if it it a differential backup (and not an incremental backup) that seems to explicitly say that those old differential backups can be deleted.
