 WGAN Question of the Day What’s your backup strategy (on site, off site, or both) (dual cards, SSD dump, verification), and what has saved you from data loss? I've suffered data loss early on but I built a NAS RAID Array using Truenas a couple years ago with about 84TB of storage. I can lose 4 hard drives and not lose any data. Curious what others are using? Tom |

| Just using Google Drive right now as a backup, but have a Ugreen NAS and four 22TB drives sitting on the floor waiting for me to setup. Then will use the NAS as backup with cloud storage as a redundant. If all goes well, plan to purchase a 2nd NAS and setup offsite and drop the cloud storage next year. | ||

| @JasonZ Nice, get it set up quick! I had all my data on a NAS set up as JBOD and lost a drive and was screwed... I won't let that happen again! I would like to get into the 3-2-1 method. Three copies of data, two different types of media, one kept off site... i'm still working toward that. I bought a blue ray burner and 100gb discs but haven't wanted to use them because i'd be having to use a LOT of discs... one of these days when I get some disposable income i'd love to get an LTO9 drive with the LTO9 tapes (18tb uncompressed/45tb compressed). but until then i'm with ya, nas + cloud and hopefully move toward two NAS, one on site, one remote.

| @SparksMediaGroup Have you looked at Seagates External Hard Drives? Amazon has 22TB for I think around $250. Was thinking of using those instead of cloud storage until I purchased a second NAS for offsite. Back up monthly or bi-weekly and store off site, but then I thought about it and realized I'd never be disicplined enough to do that, lol. | ||
