Since my myth box has crashed a few times, including power loss and hard lockups, I want to backup my recordings, videos, etc so I don't lose anything the next time. So I picked up a couple large hard drives and have another linux box (FC3) ready to be a network storage device. I already backup important files, such as mysql dump, so I'm just talking the large video files here.
What's the best way to get all my recordings, videos, mucis, etc sent over to this box every so often, maybe once a day. I'm thinking copy anything new or changed, and remove anything deleted from the source. Changes would only be made on the storage system, either adding or removing files.
Would rsync be the best way to accomplish this or is there a better option?
I use rsync for backups on another linux box I have. It's a very easy way to have full backups which use up minimal disk space and is quick to execute.
