No problem. BackupPC (well, all system backup) is a *lot* more complex
than people think!

Thanks for your thorough reply Timothy.
I will look into the DVR type drives, that's a good point
And I read you, loud and clear, that there are a number of
questions to be answered before one can say that a certain
configuration will suffice in any

Thanks Les.
The majority of the files are actually on our main server so I'm
worrying a little bit.

I have found that the limiting speed for backups with lots of files is how
fast the backup server can walk the BackupPC pool, so going with faster
disks will help some. You will probably find that 4x 500GB drives in a
RAID 10 will give you more throughput, but at more cost.

Hi all
I have invested in a used HP Proliant ML150 G5 server as a new backup
server. I have about 500 GB of data in 40 000 files spread over 8
clients to backup. Data doesn't grow fast so I'm aiming at two 1TB disks
in a raid 1 configuration.
Do I go with more expensive, but faster (and more
