I have persistent problems with small USB hard drives that I use for
backup. The backup utility is the rsnapshot, which is set up to back up
my system incrementally every day starting about 3:00am. The backup
fails occasionally; when this happens the drive's file system is usually
corrupted, which can be repaired using fsck. So far, there has been no
perceptible loss of data
What I have been lately, is building my own with drives
with Rosewill backup cases (RX304-APU3-35B). I populate
them with Western Digital drives. Had one Blue drive
go bad. I have since switched to Red and Black drives
and haven't had an issue.
Is there any error detection on the USB link between the device being
backed up and the
Rosewill Box + Disk? Or do we just send the bits over the link and hope
for the best?
The disk in the drive tells you good or bad. I believe this
is called CRC, but I may be wrong.
