Basically any can work. Transfer speeds with a USB2.0 port will slow, but adequate if it's okay for things to take overnight. For example, a transfer at, say, 25MB/sec will take about 12 hours to transfer 1TB of data.
Depending on what sort of thing, specifically, you want to do, you can vastly improve performance by doing incremental updates via rsync. And if you want to keep archive snapshots rather than just the latest snapshot, you can both vastly improve performance and vastly minimize storage space consumption by using either hardlink copy (with an ext4 file system) or btrfs file system. But if this drive needs to be directly usable by a Windows computer, then you may be forced to use the NTFS file system, which lacks hardlinks and also lacks various btrfs capabilities. Fundamentally, the important questions aren't the one you ask. Pretty much any 1TB USB drive will work, and most will have similar (poor!) performance over USB2.0. But the important question is what you really want to do with it. This will define what tools to use, and what file system to use. |
Might be possible to use a modern usb hard drive on a modern lan computer and share it to this if you have fast nic.
