note Anonymous Monk <p> Here is an alternative idea <p> Archive the backups for a month before deleting them (like zip/7-zip) <p> Since the files are nearly identical, it should compress really well, so in the same space you have of 24hrs of backups you can have ~20 days of backups (one zip per day), and if you combine those zip/day backups into a single archive, you'll have space for more days :) 1015070 1015602 1
