Do you really have 4G of data completely different on a daily basis? I've got a client using rsync to backup their 70 Gb of Windows file shares and home directories over a very slow line to an offsite host. Takes a few minutes to a half-an-hour each night, since 99% stays static. Now, if you wanted to back up binaries like DBFs, that might be hard. But you should be able to backup text dumps of data pretty fast. Check out rsync over ssh for security and speed.
