Sync servers with BitTorrent Sync
- shocks 13y agoI'm using one of those Intel Atm £2.50 OVH dedicated servers for exactly this. It works pretty well, but I've had issues when syncing files that change often. I've switched to using ownCloud for documents and other rapidly changing files, and BitTorrent Sync for large folder backups. It's working really really well. ownCloud is 100x better than it ever used to be and installation was a breeze.
- inetsee 13y agoSomething similar can be done using a Raspberry Pi instead of an AWS instance. Just go to your favorite search engine and search for "raspberry pi bittorrent sync". This way you can save that $175/year for an AWS micro instance, and have complete control over your server.
