Hi just wanted to let you know that after the warranty runned out of my ERL I took an exact copy of the usb drive, used my Linux machine for the job.
pv < /dev/sdb > /dev/sdc
After that I increased the space because it was a 16GB usb drive from Kingston
also had to run fsck on the new Kingston drive before booting up my ERL
So now I got a backup.
