You could just use dd, like
Code:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb/backup_image.img
/dev/sda being the servers drive and /dev/sdb being the usb drive.
To restore the server from the backup .img you’d do,
Code:
dd if=/dev/sdb/backup_image.img of=/dev/sda
Just make sure you have enough space.
You can even use the count, skip and seek options to segment the image into smaller parts if needed.
