Re: [BackupPC-users] maximum clients/data

As far as I am concerned, BackupPC scales very well. I run 200 - 250
clients onto 3 year old single proc, 1GB ram, and (4) 250GB sata disks
in a raid 5. The limiting factor is the I/O throughput. I am in the
process of moving the data to a large NAS and can now run more clients
on a BackupPC server.
If you have the bandwidth to backup directly to a remote site you can
avoid Bacula and tapes, if not then you will need tapes and something
like Bacula to get offsite backups.
cheers,
