Hello Philip,

Any USB drive will do as long as you get a minimum of three to rotate. I also use a NAS and have that configured for iSCSI as an extra storage option.

User

why the minimum of three to rotate?

One is connected to the server, one you carry with you and one is on a remote location. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backup_rotation_scheme
