Which backup solution would you recommend?

I was directed that all your data is in your home folder.  If you can,
writing a script would work from the command line.  I don't particularly
care for it but a program called Unison does directory mirroring.

SMB is a function of samba as far as I know so if you have the client
installed on your system you can write to windows folders or vice versa.

It's doable is my point.
