After that - rsync can generally do incremental backups far, far faster.

ZFS can do incremental snapshots and send/receive much faster than rsync
on the file level. And e.g. FreeNAS comes with all the bells and whistles already
in place - just a matter of point and click to replicate one set of datasets on one
server to another one …

*Local* replication is a piece of cake today, if you have the hardware.

Kind regards,
Patrick
