PS5Save v2 by heni0xyz
Backs up PS5 and PS4 saves, emulator saves and any files you list to a USB drive, with daily snapshots
Install on your PS5
Payload: start an ELF loader on the PS5 first, such as elfldr, which listens on port 9021. Then open this address in a browser on a computer or phone on the same network, with your PS5's address in place of PS5. elfldr downloads the payload and runs it.

About PS5Save
You need a fast USB drive formatted as exFAT, big enough for all your saves, with a backup.conf in its root. Leave it plugged in, and once the payload is running it backs up on a timer and keeps dated daily snapshots.
backup.conf sets the time between passes (30 to 3600 seconds), turns decrypted PS4 and PS5 save backups on or off, caps the size per title and says how many daily snapshots to keep, up to 10. Below that you list any other files or folders to copy, such as the memory cards in /data/PCSX2 or /data/porpoise/saves/. The developer's example has entries for PS5SX2, PS5SX3, Porpoise, ProsperoEden and PS5X360.
The game you're playing gets backed up once you quit it.
