I'm using ZFS on my home server. The backups of my main system are created with the ubuntu desktop utility and written to the server via NFS. This means I have incremental backups and the backups themselves are protected from a hardware failure using raidz. A problem with this approach is the possibility to rm -rf /mnt/backup - that's why I only start and mount the server when I need it. It's not running 24/7.
