*** That server is getting pretty long in the tooth.

I am nt so much concerned about the speed as it is pretty much for home use & more of a proof of concept type thing. Something I could suggest to someone as a solution. I have been doing the backups t the external drive manually s far...but you are right...I wuld like it to be automated. The off-site portion would be the external drive that would travel with me. That way...a worst case scenario where I didnt have access to the house (i.e. flood, fire, PHTF, etc.) I would still have a bulk of the data present. Ideally though you are right...an off-site solution would be best. If I had the resources I would definately be buying better equipment & doing something off-site. > > > On Fri, Apr 18, 2014 at 6:55 PM, TekBudda <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > > > On 14-04-18 09:23 AM, Anand Singh wrote: > > I have this exact setup running for a customer.
