Backup Ubuntu Server To External Hard Drive

I bought this to provide backup power to 2 workstation I use as fileservers. One has Ubuntu server, the other is SUSE 11.x as a file server. Integration via USB and apcupsd works like a champ. Both computers will shutdown after the period of time I specified and puts the UPS into standby until the power comes back. And all devices automatically restart. Very sweet. I choose the size based on power supply ratings and the actual load on the UPS is only about 33% capacity. As it turns out, I could have gone with a smaller unit.

No issues. I use it to connect an external backup hard drive to my netbook.

I have several WD Elements Desktop External Hard Drive and all have served us well for backup.

I have used a LaCie Rugged USB External Hard Drive as a backup device for over 10 years. This is a very reliable product. When I purchased a new computer with a Type C drive I did not hesitate to upgrade to a LaCie Type C drive knowing it would be just as reliable.

Purchased this to transfer photos from another WD 4TB external hard drive as a backup.

I bought this hard drive to use with Time Machine on my Mac. I literally just plugged it in, then the computer asked me if I wanted to use it as my Time Machine backup and I clicked yes. Presto. Done. Didn't install any software, it's just plug and play. (I had to buy a new external drive because I got a new computer and the old backup drive would be completely overwritten if I used it for Time Machine. This one is about 1/20 the size of the old. Since I work upstairs in my bedroom at night sometimes, it's nice to have an external drive that is completely portable. This way I tend to plug it in for a backup more often instead of waiting until I am downstairs again.) I actually bought an extra one for a different computer.

I need CD blanks to first backup my computer, in case of external/internal hard drive failure. And to copy/burn and to store relevant data. So I choose Verbatim because they are highly reliable and I have had success with them before.

Very compact and secure 2TB external hard drive. Great for backup of essential data (pictures, journal, notes,....) while traveling. Password protected.

I wanted a basic back-up storage external hard drive for music, pictures and OS backup. After reading many reviews, I purchased this product. It is exactly what I wanted, basic storage with no invasive back-up programs getting in the way. Great purchase and would recommend it!!

The Seagate 2TB Backup Plus Slim external hard drive is small and convenient to carry. Also, it holds a lot of data for its small size. In the two months I've owned it, it has worked perfectly.
