No, not rsync by itself.
rdiff-backup is a great tool which simplifies rsync across multiple machines,

Also, with hard drives so cheap, what's wrong with just copying all files to 
another partition? The partition info ITSELF is not the important thing, but 
the data.

And if the guy is asking about backups, is it a good idea to move to a beta 
system in any case?
