I just got my home server up and running and was wondering what you guys recommend for backups. I figure it will probably be worth having backups on cloud servers tjay are external, are there any good services yall use for that?

Backups and archived files go to my home server which then backups to backblaze b2.

borg with an external hard drive and borgbase as a remote. I use the 2-2-1 rule (🙈), as I struggle to find a good way to do another backup and RAID does not count 😬

What's the 2-2-1 rule?

[–] ErwinLottemann@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

~~3~~2 different copies of the data in 2 different locations is 1 actual backup (it's actually 3-2-1...)

AWS Glacier. I use the Synology plugin that does it automatically on a schedule.

Their prices are ridicules if you add cost of outbound traffic.

But if not (for disaster recovery only) it is pretty cheap. Like 1$/TB/month.

I have an unraid server which hosts an docker image of Duplicacy. It is paid though for the web interface. And it backs up to Backblaze B2. I have roughly 175GB backed up, for which I pay $0.87 a month.
