Re: Backups

rdiff-backup is very good at small diffs.
I'd also suggest that some hashing of files take place.
On that back of that I'd be doing a regular check to insure that data
set a equals data set b.
The important thing is how do you deal with deltas if and when files
on disks start to degrade.
