I have a raspberry pi running http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/ http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/ However, it seems to get in a corrupted if I close my laptop lid mid-backup. I don't lose anything, I just need to run disk util on the backup image. Prior to that I was using time machine on USB and never had an issue. If you work plugged in you'll never lose more than 5-10min of work. It'll remind you every 7 days you haven't backed up. I was looking into a solution for Linux the other week and http://www.rsnapshot.org/ http://www.rsnapshot.org/ works very similarly and is what fits my needs there. The benefit of time machine is that excludes unnecessary OS folders/files by default and the OS installer has a simple interface for recovering the whole hdd from a time machine backup. I recently found time machien now has tmutil, a commandline tool for accessing time machine backups which really helps make managing them more transparent.
