Synchronization is not backup, learn the difference. For backup I'd choose a cold storage based on spinning disks, these things hold for 20 years unpowered with no problem. No SSDs - these fail after few years in cold storage.
- beardyw 2y agoAgreed, synchronisation is great but is dangerous as your only strategy, otherwise a silly deletion locally means complete loss. I only synchronise active work, and backup everything locally onto hard usb drives, and periodically onto a drive held off-site.
- anoojb 2y agoDo you have a server setup to manage backups to local HDDs? Or do you periodically plugin drives for overnight backups?
