Do you happen to have an old computer laying around? If so check out TrueNAS Core. You'd need one small OS drive and 2 backup drives - your current 7TB and one more to build the recommended RAID. It compresses, saves older revs of files if possible with snapshots. Is supports NFS mounts for media/etc, chroot jails and lots of other stuff. The default version has been FreeBSD based so I had some learning to do but I think there's now a Linux version. It appears that possibly you have your backup drive in your computer so it moves backups to a separate machine which you can locate remotely so you're probably safer in terms of a fire or some other catastrophic event. If this appeals and you have the hardware you can build a box and mess with it but it certainly does the minimal number of things you are asking for. HTH, Mark
