Thanks for the suggestions everyone.  I'm backing up about 350GB of
data.  I had considered Bacula before, but was afraid of the
requirements.  However I dove into it and have it up and running,
currently backing up my data.  It seems to be an extremely well put
together project and the documentation is very readable and clear.

Thanks again!
