I've used ZFS to back up my laptops to an external USB disk that formed one half of the mirror for a long while.
See: http://blogs.sun.com/chrisg/entry/external_usb_disk_drive I recently stopped doing that in favour of doing the same to iSCSI luns hosted on ZFS ZVOLs on a server: http://blogs.sun.com/chrisg/entry/backing_up_laptop_using_zfs Which is more convenient for me.
