And don't forget: 1 for each of the previous 24 hours!

It just matters how much that hour, or 2, or 23, of data cost you.

[Funny, that this is almost exactly the way that Apple configured Time Machine.]

BTW, has anyone noticed how much nicer Server 10 is in this regard? You can actually do all of this with server now. No more scripts to folder-and-timestamp successive backups. You can do all the above right in the server scheduler now. You still have to have a method to move the folders off the drive, but you can keep multiple backups now without a lot of scripting. Yippee!

So that 24 a day, 7 a week, 4 a month, 12 a year is so much more the colloquial "piece of cake" now.
