I've got two servers and a machine at home I've tried backing up to a USB drive, and in each case after a few weeks/months I start getting hardware errors from the USB drive, and the files I backed up aren't accessible. The two servers are Debian installations, both with a relatively recent 2.4 kernel; the one at home is a Mac. If you've done this and had it run successfully for a year or so, what hardware are you using (enclosure/adapter and drive), and what kernel?
