I have some older Macs backing up with time machine to a USB hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme Base Station. I have some newer Macs backing up to a Mac Mini File Server.
One difference I see that that via Airport/USB, they back up to a disk image, and when using the server, they back up to files and folder (no disk image involved).
Moving forward, I need to make some upgrades. Is there a good reason to choose one of the other? which method is more reliable?
