One other thing to think about is if the files are not changing that much you may want to use rsync, which will copy only the changed files.

cpio(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual cpio(4)
NAME
cpio - Format of cpio archive
DESCRIPTION
The header structure, when the -c option of cpio(1) is not used, is: struct {
short h_magic,
h_dev;
ushort h_ino,
h_mode,
h_uid,
h_gid;
short h_nlink,
h_rdev
h_mtime[2],
h_namesize,
h_filesize[2]'
char h_name[h_namesize rounded to word]; } Hdr; When the -c option is used, the header information is described by:
sscanf(Chdr,"%6o%6o%6o%6o%6o%6o%6o%6o%11lo%6o%11lo%s",
&Hdr.h_magic, &Hdr.h_dev, &Hdr.h_ino, &Hdr.h_mode,
&Hdr.h_uid, &Hdr.h_gid, &Hdr.h_nlink, &Hdr.h_rdev,
&Longtime, &Hdr.h_namesize,&Longfile,Hdr.h_name); The Longtime and Longfile are equivalent to Hdr.h_mtime and Hdr.h_filesize, respec-
tively. The contents of each file are recorded in an element of the array of varying length structures, archive, together with other items
describing the file. Every instance of h_magic contains the constant 070707 (octal). The items h_dev through h_mtime have meanings
explained in stat(2). The length of the null-terminated path name h_name, including the null byte, is given by h_namesize.
The last record of the archive always contains the name TRAILER!!! Special files, directories, and the trailer are recorded with h_file-
size equal to zero.
