I'm embarking on my own backup solution: For $1.38 USD/month (Ramnode OpenVZ SSD-Cached 128mb RAM VPS with 31% off for life coupon) I get 50gb.
I just need to setup a synchronization/encryption schedule. I'm thinking rsync remotely to the server. Not sure on encryption yet.
I'm also using the servers as development and minor hosting for myself. It's practically a free storage solution?
Am I crazy?
- mateuszf 13y agoIf your are using linux, encfs should work fine with rsync based solution.
- RachelF 13y agono - where did you find the deal?
- JimmaDaRustla 13y agohttp://serverbear.com/coupons http://serverbear.com/coupons I would just write the code here, but I'd rather you visit the wonderful site ;) Edit: Do a search for RamNode.
- icebraining 13y agoI do something similar, though I use git-annex / assistant to manage the files. It can have remote data repositories using rsync with transparent encryption (using GPG keys). I also have a bigger drive at home mounted on a raspberry, which stores both the important files (as a second backup) and a lot of unimportant crap.
- JimmaDaRustla 13y agoThanks for the tip! I'm hoping to look at rsync in order to do partial changes, so I could synchronize VM disks and other large files. I don't like keeping my PC turned on to perform a sync, so I would love to setup a Raspberry pi to do the work for me, but it only has USB 2.0...
