I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?
I’m not sure how you understand the 3-2-1 rule given how you explained it, even though you’re stating the right stuff (I’m confused about your numbered list…) so just for reference for people reading that, it means that your backups need to be on:
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
3-2-1
Three copies. The data on your server.
Buy a giant external drive and back up to that.
Off site. Backblaze is very nice
How to get your data around? Free file sync is nice.
Veeeam community version may help you too

Huh. I always heard 3 copies, 2 locations, 1 of the locations offsite. Yours makes sense though.
