SUMMARY
A full backup of my data from local disk to my NAS Server takes hours.

Therefore it would be very helpful to have an incremental backup without compression only for what is new. I cannot see any settings like this in KBackup!!

For getting an idea which features and settings are very helpful you can have a look at Grsync. But the problem with Grsync is many of the features do not work properly. 
A KDE specific KBackup solution would be perfect than.

kbackup can already do incremental backups.
Open File -> Profile Settings and change "Full Backup Interval" to whatever number of days you like.
The first backup is a full backup and the next x backups are incremental ones until your defined number of days is reached.
