tar completed backup of all the users except: ant, harrywood and mvexel for who limited backups were created because they have millions of tiny cache files which would have significantly delayed completion.

Disk still causing minor issues, but fixed the system crashing. Th areca controller was not compatible with Ubuntu 22.04 kernel (5.15), reverted to Ubuntu 20.04 kernel (5.13) and the crashes have stopped.
