Just be aware that 5.2.6 that comes with some Linux distros (Ubuntu for example), the 'dbcheck' program doesn't work.  However it is fixed I believe in 5.2.13.  But I haven't found a PPA or other method for upgrading to the latest version in Ubuntu short of compile from source (not quite ready to try that yet - ha).

5.x still works pretty well, and no issues with the windows client backing up my workstation. I get about 26 MB/s, and never any crashes, although I don’t backup any system files. Only Documents.

 

If your drive fails there are better ways to restore it, including installing from scratch, so no need to backup anything except personal docs...
