I have searched the forums, read post on baking up, but cannot seem to find the answer to what I am trying to do. I want to backup my data folders ( Music, Movies, Etc ) to a 6TB drive I have installed. Drive is formatted as EXT4. Drive is not part of the raid I am running, It is standalone internal, not USB. Once I able to that, I would like to be able to run backups that will ignore files that are there and only add the newest files. In theory., its seems like there should be a simple way to do it. But I cannot figure it out. Thanks!

Simplest way is rsync (available out of the box)
If you want a versioned backup use rsnapshot (available as plugin from omv-extras)
Ir you want a versioned, compressed, de-duplicated and encrypted backup use borg backup (available as plugin from omv-extras)

Also read about the 3-2-1 Backup Strategy
e.g.
Backup Strategies: Why the 3-2-1 Backup Strategy is the BestA Backblaze survey revealed 54% of people said they know someone or have themselves recently lost data. Find out what you can do to prevent data loss.www.backblaze.com -
Easiest method: setup for each folder you would like to backup an rsync task - you could do this easily in the GUI.
Or write a small script containing the necessary rsync commands, save it and let it start by the scheduler (also in GUI)
Edit: Ops - too late

You could use this -> rsync process to backup your RAID array to the disk. The only change to the procedure would be the "source disk" which would be the mount point of the RAID array. Also, immediately following, there are instructions on how to recover to the backup disk, if your RAID array dies.
Once the RAID array is fixed, the source and destination can be reversed to recover the array. Reverse the shared folder recovery procedure and you'd be back on the array.
