I have a library of movies, TV shows and music for local hosting. Right now I have a script that uses cp to copy newly added media files to a second, identical drive in another room as a backup. there has to be a better way to do this.
ignoring cloud storage and RAID, what are some command line tools that could ensure that the integrity of the files remains intact? assuming the drive continues to function properly.
You could put them in the same machine and set the file system to zfs. But that’s enterprise grade and can be a pain to work with imo. I switched over to and UnRAID server with double parity, should do the trick.
