I’m trying to plan a better backup solution for my home server. Right now I’m using Duplicati to back up my 3 external drives, but the backup is staying on-site and on the same kind of media as the original. So, what does your backup setup and workflow look like? Discs at a friend’s house? Cloud backup at a commercial provider? Magnetic tape in an underground bunker?

    2x 2TB with rsync

    2X 500GB with rsync.

    1x 1TB cloud drive via rsync

    The 2TB has a 500GB dir that gets cloned to the other 2 500GB drives and the cloud.

    4 drives, 2 locations (1 offsite)

    I could spare 500gb portion somewhere I guess but it’s just easy atm that the important 500GB gets copied around 1x a week.
