It won't be of use because BackupPC already performs its own data de- duplication within the pool. I suppose I should say it will be of little use, since the de-duplication is at the block, not file, level. So that will help a little. > I'm actually running 8 simultaneous backups, over DLS WAN connections, > during nighttime, and no problems yet. The slow data rate of DSL is why you can do that. I'm running 4 over gigabit. A single SATA drive (RAID-1 write performance = 1 drive write speed) can't keep up with that many seeks and writes at the same time. Regards, Tyler -- Discere faciendo.
