Running a BBS on an A1200, we currently lha the main files, FTP'ing them to a nearby PC as backup (cron job). For absolute security we'd like to isolate the Amiga and have it backup to...itself, somewhere. The HDD in the Amiga has 2 partitions, SYS and WORK. The BBS is on WORK. Backing up to SYS doesn't sound that great an idea, so what other options do we have? Not floppy and nothing PCMCIA (in use by a 3com card). Secondary hard driver, perhaps? And if so, how? There's a Blizzard running in the trapdoor socket.
