Default Is it necessary to use CalculateFull command when in automatic mod

I have a very large workbook that takes about 4 minutes to update external
links. When I want to update links I am not sure whether it would be better
to just place the calculation mode in automatic and change a cell to trigger
Excel to calculate all cells or whether to just leave in manual and run the
command "CalculateFull". I have had some problems leaving it in manual and
running CalculateFull but am not certain it will update the links if I just
place it in automatic. I am concerned however that if I put it in automatic
AND run the CalculateFull command I may be just doubling the refresh time.
Thanks in advance.
