Backup within NV+

I am evaluating whether to purchase the NV+ with 2x1GB disks. One of my criteria is being able to use it as both primary and backup server. Specifically, I want to:

1. Use 1 disk for storing primary data.
2. Periodically (about once a week/few days) back up primary data to secondary disk. This way if my primary disk fails, I have not lost more than a few days worth of data.
3. I don't want to do a full disk copy - just backup changed data.

Can I do this with the NV+? Are there any additional features that might be useful?

Regards,
Sandeep

  • You can but I wouldn't recommend it as the SATA connectors are not meant for frequent action.
