I get away from the potential compatibility issues by not compressing
the data.
I copy the data to a Windows formatted USB drive [2 TB] and then copy
the data onto my Ubuntu desktop. Since I actually have three 2TB drives
internal, that is the primary storage/backup.
The next thing I do i

Automatic backups are nice, but I found out the hard way that files backed up
from one computer can not always be restored to another computer, or even to an
updated drive or operating system on the same computer.
And since I know that any electronic device will fail at some point, I usually
