for your personal data ?

The simpler method for frequent use it to rsync to an external HD, on usb, for instance (which I power off after doing the backup). For long term I save my work files to DVD in duplicate (perhaps using zisofs compressed format).

There are improved rsync style solutions that keep older versions, an history of changes, like rdiff-backup or dirvish.
There is a Backup facility in Yast2.

Does anyone have experience using it and/or any comments about it?

Ciao.
