This seems way over the top. How muuch extra reliability does this get you when compared to RAID+1 locally and amazon glacier or s3? For the super paranoid, add a non-amazon based online backup as well. This seems to have made sense before these services were available, but just doesn't seem worthwhile anymore
- hashtree 13y agoHmm... I should reframe this. I just noted it says personal. I didn't see the qualifier, ignore my previous post as it is for my actual business data (e.g. huge persisted data stores, logs, etc). Personal looks like: - Two or more personal computers (e.g. iMac and MBA) with SpiderOak syncing between. - Once weekly I backup to disk (basic rsync), take said disk to safety deposit box (as mentioned above), trade it out with another with the previous weeks data. This makes sense for me (over AWS) for the amount of data I have, the fact I do this anyways for my business, and that I do not trust most services with my data. - More recently, I've been doing a year-end permanent archive to disk going back 2 to 3 years.
