I have got fast SSD that can break down every day. I have got USB hard drive. I want to sync data every day, twice a day between them as fast as possible (raw dd takes an hour). If SSD is broken then I just plugin USB hard drive and continue working (with some minor data lost).

ZFS has incremental snapshots, it is fast, but I need to restore bootloader, partitions and everything corresponding to be able to bootup and work again.



Scratching your own itch is the correct path to success, in my books. Keep up the good work.
