It's all manual so sometimes some backups are months old. Haven't lost a single digital photo for almost 15 years now, and have gigabytes of obsolete photos...
- theandrewbailey 5y agoMine is similar, but 1 is an internal drive, and I have almost no cloud storage. > It's all manual so sometimes some backups are months old. Do you at least have a script for backing up the live copy to onsite? Like plug in the drive, enter encryption key, then run script?
- durnygbur 5y agoYes, a script grabbing the paths specified in backup configuration file and calculating the checksums of created archives. No additional encryption at this point as the external drives are LUKS encrypted. The setup works seamlessly only with Linux machines though.
