Save the anti-stat container the drives are shipped in and pack them in a padded pistol carry case. Also you can buy multiple removable HD trays and just pack the tray in a carry case. I just needed something smart and cheap! One strategy with rsync to watch and have management define in the case of the rolling backups: Do you want rsync to delete removed files from the backup server if removed from the original server, or do you want those deleted files to be maintained on the backup? This is important! Some data may require both methods, depending upon what it is. Think about that carefully!
