Snapshots are cool - essential if you need to backup a 24x7 operation. Now weigh up the complexity vs the risk they introduce.


Yeah. Linux also has snapshots, and they work on *any* filesystem type, including ext2, ext3, xfs, FAT, ...

But I haven't yet seen a simple GUI widget to make them easy to use, and the CLI tool just plain sucks for complexity. And the "can I recover" from disaster question nags me whenever I'm adding layers to the software between me and my files!
