If you installed from the sourceforge tarball you can set the location anywhere
you want. However it is a very common problem with packaged (rpm/deb)
installations that people try to move the storage location after installation
and it doesn't work to simply change $TopDir once it is set. But, I didn't
think that was your problem since you were at backup 150 before seeing a
problem. There is still the possibility of a physical disk error. External
drives aren't all that reliable - but that should be reported in 'dmesg'.
