Most any distro with a decent package system would work. Are you looking for your home system? If so I'd go with Mandrake as it's a little more user friendly for a workstation. If you want something more server like, I'd go with CentOS.

Actually, if you're just looking for your home system to store a backup, you really don't have to do Linux at all. You can install cygwin which has an optional rsync package.
