As thread name suggests,what kind of backup are you using ? ( If you are backupping your data of course :P )

Are you using r-sync...tar...bakula? and where you backup to? usb disk/flash drive? Nas? Another Computer? Online server ?

I have a second disk attached to my "main" computer and backup stuff using a r-sync cron job to that disk , but thinking about upgrading my "backup infrastructure" :D

Well. For small things, I use dropbox. Otherwise, I don't really backup. Nothing of value.

Automated rsnapshot (http://rsnapshot.org) backup to a backup server every day. Server runs it as a cron job to automatically backup my laptop.

Works like a charm!
