 I think I'm going to run PBS as a VM under Proxmox instead of a
 bare-metal install. My only spare system at the moment is a Pi 4, and
 it sounds a bit complicated. If I needed to, re-installing Proxmox,
 changing the basic settings and installing PBS shouldn't be too hard.

 I'm backing up to NFS, not locally to PBS.

 Deduping should save a ton of space - I do a full backup of the BBS VM
 through Proxmox and a file-level backup to NFS weekly.
