Backup to more than one drive

Asked by chet_fred

I would like to back up to two redundant drives. How can I tell "Back in Time" to do the backup twice on the seperate drives? Thanks by the way for creating such a handy application for all.

BackinTime cannot do that yet. The developmental trunk version that is
available via Launchpad will support more profiles. The version that is
distributed at the moment can use one folder located on one filesystem.
There are some indirect solutions though. You could use a raid setup or LVM
setup to "merge" the disks and create a single filesystem on top of that.
Additional benefit of the latter is that you could grow the space when
needed by including more partitions at later times.
