Sounds like
backuppc
is a more friendly front-end to rsync. Sorry, but I have never used it and it doesn't appear in any of my CentOS 6.7 repositories (standard + epel + rpmforge).

If you want uservfriendly frontend you can use grsync. It has the most interesting options.

I have been trying to learn to program for years. I've played around with C, C++, Python, & PHP but I would not dare call myself a programmer. I want to setup a remote server with lots for storate, I figured that Raspberry Pi 2 + hard drives would be a cheap way of achieving this goal, and I've heard good things about
backuppc
from Linux users.

I haven't used it yet but as of right now I'm still planning on using
backuppc
. I have many TBs to backup most of that up locally before deploying the server outside my home network. Then I'll only be backing up the difference when I run my backups.

Do you know much programming? Reason I ask is that if you intend to code your own 'server' software, you could implement a journaling type setup for your hard drive. You could do this with application code, doing so just requires some interesting interfaces etc. First found out about the template from mongo db, acutally had a nice little diagram. …

Well, congrats you picked all the hard ones to learn. JK. I think OOP is a much better way to go most of the time. It seems easier to think of things as objects. Also be aware that the PI doesn't have much bandwidth. Which should be fine for a file server application. If you wanted to throw together an ftp server, that would probably require a lot …

It sounds like you already have the Pi, but I got a cubieboard for this purpose because it has an actual SATA port. I've got a 1TB 2.5" drive, powered through the cubieboard (Just make sure your power supply is at least 2amps or better!).
