Also, if you don't require off-site backup, go with an internal drive. Some of the external drives out there still have Linux issues. None of the internal drives have those kind of issues. You can get up 2 TB now in one single drive now for under $200. Western Digital, Seagate, and Hitachi are all selling them. And, Backup Exec has been a Symantec product for four years now.

Hi, I've been doing backups with BackupPC for quite a few years, mainly backing up 2 or 3 servers. I've recently installed BackupPC at the office and am backing up 6 servers right now, with room to grow. The current backup (Veritas BackupExec) keeps around a year of data, which is close to 2.5 TB. Since I plan on phasing out Veritas for BackupPC, I'm looking at similar sizes for my data. All my backups will be via ssh/rsync and Samba/Windows shares. How many servers and how much data do you backup using BackupPC? Gerald
