I have a reciprocal arrangement with a friend. We both have fibre connections with no data caps, so we each host a USB drive & Raspberry Pi belonging to the other. We each store (encrypted) backups at the other's site. The (rsync) backups are scripted to occur nightly during the early hours of the morning so as to not have any affect on our links during the day.
It works very well, and provides us with automated off-site duplication at no additional cost over a local USB drive solution (other than the up-front cost of the Pis, which were <$70 each). It even runs over IPv6 :) Pete > On 17/11/2016, at 11:51 am, Andrew Sands <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi all, > > Just thinking I should do better with my data backup procedures.
