I noticed several of the suggestions here are projects that havent been 
updated in years, which makes me leery of trying them.

Grsync's last update was 2016. Timeshift is more recently updated, but 
it seems to lack network support and needs a local drive. I only had one 
drive in this system, and it defaulted to storing the snapshots, etc on 
the same drive. I do like it, though.

Borg backup has ongoing development, so I'd like to try that next.
