See: <a class="user" href="http://www.rsnapshot.org/">http://www.rsnapshot.org/</a>rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility for making backups of local and remote systems.Using rsync and hard links, it is possible to keep multiple, full backups instantly available. The disk space required is just a little more than the space of one full backup, plus incrementals.Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just a few minutes. Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user getting involved.There are no tapes to change, so once it's set up, you may never need to think about it again. Works great, been around for a while now, lots of people use it..... its Time Machine for NIX-Geeks.
I found this quote insightful:"Buddha came to the world to show the path of righteousness, to destroy the path of error, and to break down sorrow. Buddhism is not agnosticism or atheism. Buddha did not deny God. He only said: "Do not bother about questions like 'Is there God?', 'Do I exist?', 'Is the world real or not?'. Do not waste your time and energy in useless discussions. Become a practical religious man. Purify your heart. Control the mind. Lead a virtuous life. You will attain Nirvana or emancipation or eternal bliss."To accuse Buddha as an atheist or agnostic is simply foolish. Buddha found no use in metaphysical wrangling. He declined to enter into metaphysics. Is there God or no God? Is life eternal or non-eternal? These questions were set aside as not requiring an answer for the attainment of Nirvana. "<a class="user" href="http://www.dlshq.org/religions/buddhism.htm">http://www.dlshq.org/religions/buddhism.htm</a>Forget your names and analogies when they are no longer needed. They only lead one astray from understanding.
Actually, a backup can be a copy to another system too. Once you try to backup 2TB to removable storage you will realize that removable media is probably the worst method to backup around. The zfs method of using remote systems (can be across the country) to backup to will probably become the standard a few years from now.
@daediusIf he says not to worry about whether God exists without affirming or denying his existence then he was agnostic by definition. You argument reads like this to me. Buddha isn't an agnostic because "argument that defines agnosticism".

not caring about deep religious questions != not choosing a side (inferred - wavering between them)he is sideless, such is peace
