ghettoVCBg2 or ghettoVCB?

I haven't seen much activity regarding ghettoVCBg2 vs ghettoVCB.

 

Is ghettoVCBg2 viable?  We have a VMware Essentials license and are looking for an inexpensive way to backup our VMs.  (Currently still using 4.1, but have the 5 upgrade.)

 

I've played around with Trilead and others but seem to get the same performance from most things I've tried, including ghettoVCB.

 

Seems that ghettoVCBg2 still works for ESXi 4.1 - 5.1.  Are there any benifits to using it?

 

Our backup storage will most likely just be an old 2 CPU Dell with a gigabit connection using NFS or iSCSI on OpenFiler/FreeNAS or Windows with Starwind's iSCSI target.  (Strange thing: ghettoVCB is slower backing up to a second local storage drive than via the network.)

 

May have a limited budget for hardware/software.

 

Thanks,

Pat
