Without checking the internet, and before you listen to other peoples' anecdotes or anything, I'd like to hear your gut feel, I want to know what your natural instinct is. What do you think about the reliability of the following tools?
If you have personal experience with them, obviously, that will shape your perception. But even with no knowledge or experience with a particular tool, I still want to know your instinct. Because your preconceived notions influence decisions you make, give you bias in terms of what tools you even think about using or researching. Focus on reliability. ;-) rsync rsnapshot rdiff-backup tar amanda bacula Any other tools that you'd like to mention, that you're likely to use for backups Follow-up question: Given that these are all free open source packages, which are probably included with your "stable" OS distribution, would you have bias to assume they're reliable, just because of that? In a follow-up post, momentarily, I'll explain why I'm asking these question.
