How to set proper backup directory?

I enabled backups on my server into /backup which appeared to already exist. However, most of the backups failed due to a disk space issue. When I checked the /backup dir is on a partition with only 9GB of space. So what are my options here, I could change the dir to a bigger partition but it has the /home dir on it so i'm assuming that is bad practice? Thanks

  Hello, Right, it's not recommended to store backups on the /home partition. I suggest adding a new drive to the server for the /backup partition, or consider storing the backups on a remote destination. Thank you.
