Unraid Backup - Please read before assuming....

[Martsmac]

Hi All,

 

Sol I write this after what seems and eternity of searching for a good answer, like any goof little I.T. Professional I have multiple PC's in my household, a combination or Windows Laptops, Windows Desktops (and Servers) and some (not a Linux expert by ANY means at all) Linux based machines, (Unraid , Prox Mox).

Now what I'm looking for my sound strange but I'm looking for a solutions to BACKUP my LINUX boxes INCLUDING my unraid array and usb etc. to a WINDOWS machine. I presently have a windows machine that I am using as a backup server with 20TB's of space on it. For my other windows machines i typically just make full disc images of the hard drives and transfer them over to the backup server on a semi-regular basis (nothing mission critical on those pc's), however here's where I find a problem , If i search methods to backup my UNRAID ARRAY and CONFIG to A DIFFERENT WINDOWS PC there seems to be almost zero articles on it , with most of them showing how to backup TO an UNRAID ARRAY.

 

This is obviously the opposite of what I'm trying to do , Ideally I would like a windows application (preferably open source) that is capable of backing up both Windows , Linux, UNRAID and potentially MAC devices to said windows backup PC) is this even possible??



Thanks,
