Not how does it, how do you. You should spread the data to an offsite or secondary location.

- deanCommie 7y agoSo, a backup solution where part of the instructions is..."another backup solution" Come on.
- magashna 7y agoUh, yeah? A common rule in IT is 3-2-1 backups. 3 copies 2 different devices or medias 1 offsite If your data isn't that important, then don't. https://www.us-cert.gov/sites/default/files/publications/data_backup_options.pdf https://www.us-cert.gov/sites/default/files/publications/dat...
- deanCommie 7y agoA) Cloud backup solutions already abstract away replicating multiple copies for redundancy. Unless Google/Dropbox/Amazon/Microsoft go out of business, you are not likely to lose data from your backup via act of god (aka data center fire) B) The simple interface of web solutions is still ultimately that if you want redundancy, just pick 2 (or 3) different providers. Myself - I use Google Drive for backup of my most core files, and Backblaze for the whole shabang.
- magashna 7y agoRight, so you have as part of your backup solution "another backup solution"
- deanCommie 7y agoMy point is backup that's not Offsite is not backup at all.
