Ahoy! My internal hdds are at max with all I’ve been torrenting and I’m considering some type of Docking station for my desktop with several 10Tbs drives in them to allow me to store and backup my data for offline protection.
I was wondering if anyone had done any type of setup like this and if it’s a reliable method for offline data storage. I’d also like it to have a RAID capability but I have software which can mirror drives to each other on startup/shutdown, etc. Also, I’d need it to have a USB-type connection for a USB SSD drive to pop-out & connect to my Smart TV for viewing.
An end goal would be to get a 3-2-1 setup but I can’t find a reliable Cloud storage I’d trust with that much data except maybe Filen.
Any positive input about brands, drives, services, etc. would be most appreciated!
Thanks!
Remember, 3-2-1 is all about not fully trusting any one backup.
I have 4 replicants of my data at home (because any one of them could die at any time) with an online backup. Not the best setup, but it’s what I can do at the moment.
As for RAID, that’s a solution for a specific problem(s).
Horders Unite! lol I’d be like you probably if I had what I wanted. I HATE to have to recreate all the hard work I put into my systems and videos. Yeah, I’ve always heard people saying NO, NO, NO RAID for backup so, I guess, no raid.
