[rdiff-backup-users] rdiff-backup on the Linksys NAS200

[Dean Cording]

rdiff-backup users might be interested to know that an implementation of 
rdiff-backup is available that runs on the Linksys NAS200, a cheap 
self-contained NAS that supports two SATA drives.

The NAS200 is very underpowered, having a 486 equivalent CPU, so backups are 
not very fast.  My inital 100GB backup took four days to run but subsequent 
backups complete in about two hours. As I use it for an offsite backup, the 
speed isn't such an issue.

Details of the NAS200 are available from
