Howdy,

My server has an 18 gig drive in it. I'm looking to do incremental backups 
every night, where my entire /ext partition will be mirrored elsewhere 
(/ext is the only thing with anything special on it that would need to be 
recreated).

I was thinking of either backing up to my home machine, which for the most 
part has a static IP (dynamic every 3-4 months), or getting an external 
hard drive.  The server is a 1U.

Does anyone have any suggestions, both for how to do this, and what kind 
of media to use?  (External hard drive, tape drive, remote backup to my 
home machine, etc.)

Thanks!

Regards,

Matt
