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?

    4-2-1-1 for me I guess 🫣 or 4-2-2?

    Two copies at home, synced daily, one of them in an external drive that I like to refer as the emergency grab and run copy lol

    One at a family member synced weekly and manually every time I visit.

    All of those three copies are always within a 10 kilometer radius in a valley overseen by a volcano so…

    One partial copy of the so-critical-would-cry-if-Iost data is synced every few days to a backblaze bucket.
