Well that might be your opinion - my experience is much more diversified. Don't assume the same solution fits everywhere.
But this is not the question here - I just wanted to know if Bareos is usable in a removable disk scenario. The data to backup is around 12TB. PS: I know environments where tape is an excellent choice, and I have seen environments where tapes failed miserably while hard drives worked extremely reliable. It is just not black and white in real life. > Am 08.02.2018 um 16:11 schrieb Tony Albers <tony.alb...@gmail.com>: > > Don't ever base your disaster recovery system on something as > volatile/unstable as USB disks.
