Backup File Server to DAS

Okay yes. A system level restore does a full erase either by wiping the drive while applying a full image or by doing a block level rollback. In both cases it is effectively an entire erasure of the system.

Just an FYI: formatting would always erase things, but just erasing does not format. Formatting is a specific filesystem operation. So I would use erase in a discussion like this rather than format. Because technically it erases but does not format.

It only copies the blocks in use not the empty parts of the filesystem

Veeam's technology is pretty impressive. This use of it is similar to StorageCraft.
