Yeah, I really don't think you could go wrong with even a higher number (1024, 2048, 4096) even if you were using a really old (2010
) device, etc.-

I'm going to send the script to you in a message in a few minutes, tell me what you think please.
Hey, sorry I crashed a little early last night 
.
So, a couple of quick questions / observations:
1. This script will be run from a custom recovery, yes? If so, do you need to make sure that the /data partition is mounted (I don't remember if it's auto-mounted or not) for your backups to the /data/media area?
2. You don't need the semi-colons at the end of the shell script lines. You can use those in a shell script if you want to separate two commands on one line for a shell script. They're still needed in an edify updater-script file, of course.
3. You could do your backup of the fota and misc partitions directly to the /data/media/0/partition_Backup directory instead of moving the files later...saves you a few steps (but think about my earlier question about whether or not /data is already mounted)
Otherwise, it looks pretty straight-forward.
