Well, is the drive 256GB or are you actually using 256GB?
I do nightly rsync backups of my home directory to a NAS. But, since I use IMAP for mail
I exclude the mail folders as
they can be rebuilt. I also exclude ~/..cache as well as some easily recreated data.
The largest flash drive I have is a 128GB so I'd have to do multiple copies.
I would surely agree with Rick that the easiest method is rsync over the network.
