I have similar needs.
Approximately once a month, or whenever I think about it, I insert my
backup hard drive in the cartridge and run a backup script that uses
rsync to backup the mutable directories to it.
That's on my old computer. I just bought a replacement, and am
seriously considering _not_ moving the backup cartridge to it. I was
thinking of buying an external usb drive to use for a backup instead.
But now I'm wondering if a flash drive might be good enough for my
needs.
