Thanks for that suggestion. Right now I have a script that I used on several machines that basically runs at around 5am (depending on what other cronjobs are scheduled) that tarzip the datafolders, then move the archives into a USB HDD. The clients swap out that drive every few days or weeks (depending on who) when the script sends an email alert that it's full. But a proper software meant to do that sounds like a better idea :D
